By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: Today, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Trade and Immigration, Eamon Courtenay bid farewell to Tariq Al-Othman, Chargé d’affaires at the Embassy of Qatar in El Salvador, accredited to Belize.

Courtenay thanked Al-Othman for laying the foundation to strengthen and expand amicable ties between Belize and Qatar.

“During his tenure, Qatar and Belize saw the strengthening of the legal framework with the negotiations of several cooperation agreements covering areas such as education, visa waiver, air services, news exchange, housing, and culture. The Air Services Agreement was signed in October 2021, followed by the Memorandum of Understanding for the Establishment of Political Consultations in June 2022,” a statement from the Ministry noted.

Al-Othman was also instrumental in arranging a successful visit to Belize by a delegation from Qatar headed by the Secretary General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Qatar during which the first political consultation meeting was convened between both countries.

Courtenay honored the efforts of Al Othman by presenting him with a Key of Friendship for his accomplishments and willingness in engaging with Belize and wished him every success on his next assignment.
