Qatari Energy Minister Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi has rejected possible changes in the way homosexuals are treated in his country as a result of the World Cup. “As Muslims, we believe that LGBTQ is not acceptable in our religion,” he told Germany’s “Bild”.
Islamic law does not accept this way of life. It is not a problem in Qatar if gay people visit the country, but as Muslims they think that LGBTQ is not acceptable.
Al-Kaabi then continues with general criticism of the West and Germany in particular: “The West is saying that as Qataris we should change religion and fully accept LGBTQ. Where is my human right to choose what I want for my religion, my country, my children and my family?” The West wants to dictate to Qatar its own values, Al-Kaabi told the “Bild”.
In addition to the statements about the rights of the LGBTQ community, Al-Kaabi also strongly criticized German Economics Minister Robert Habeck – with whom he had previously signed a deal for gas supplies to Germany.
This is what the German gas deal looks like:
He also indirectly accused German government member Habeck of double standards: “When he was here in Qatar, he only talked about whether we could supply more gas,” Al-Kaabi said in an interview when asked if Habeck was questionable. used to be. also addressed the human rights situation in Qatar. A spokeswoman for Habeck contradicted this representation against the “image”.
Habeck had also made allegations of corruption in the awarding of the World Cup to Qatar in the past – the Qatari minister also opposed this. Habeck should have more respect for Qatar – if he brings up allegations of corruption, he must be able to prove them or he could even be prosecuted.
Al-Kaabi is the CEO of Qatar’s state-owned oil and gas company QatarEnergy and thus the energy minister of Qatar. The 55-year-old studied oil and gas technology in Pennsylvania in the US in the 1980s before joining QatarEnergy and working his way up there. (con)
