Minister of State for Energy Affairs, President and CEO of Qatar Energy HE Eng Saad bin Sherida Al Kaabi has called for the formulation of policies that distance the oil and gas trade from being used as a tool of sanctions or to limit free trade agreements.
In a press statement ahead of the ministerial meeting of the Gas Exporting Countries Forum scheduled for Tuesday in Cairo, Al Kaabi said Qatar and Qatar Energy also urge all governments and multilateral institutions to condemn sabotage and military attacks on energy infrastructure or electricity networks.
He appealed to all governments, companies, stakeholders and energy consumers to work together to develop wise and balanced policies that allow responsible economic development.
He added by saying that, in order to reduce energy poverty and provide energy for all in an equitable manner, the transition to low-carbon energy must be through a realistic mix of different energy sources.
