The UK Foreign Secretary and Defense Secretary are visiting Qatar today (Wednesday), with the express purpose of working together with the country to end the Gaza war and lead to a general de-escalation of the region.
This is the second visit of Foreign Secretary to the region, after having visited both Israel and other countries in the area.
Lammy said that "Escalation and destabilisation are in no one’s interests.
"It is absolutely vital that we engage closely with partners like Qatar, who play a key role in mediating the conflict in Gaza, so that we can bring this devastating war to an end.
"The UK and Qatar have a long-standing and close partnership, and we will also look to build lasting stability and security in the region, and advance our shared priorities, like deepening economic ties, to drive UK growth and seize the opportunities of the clean energy transition."
