Qatar's PM:

If you just think about it logically, if Qatar has all this influence and all these billions that have been invested in American universities and is influencing public opinion, you would see Qatar as the number one aid recipient of the United States.

You would see Qatar never attacked and always protected and safeguarded strategically by the U.S.

It means that our investment was a bad investment.

Qatar's PM:

It came out actually in the Israeli media a couple of weeks ago that there was a campaign that’s been set by the Israeli government against Qatar officially.

And you have seen throughout the last two years of the war in Gaza, every effort that Qatar was trying to put to mediate to end this war was always undermined by Netanyahu and his extremists.

Piers Morgan: Do you think he’s a war criminal, Benjamin Netanyahu?

Qatari PM: Well, of course, what’s being committed in Gaza is war crimes, and whoever is responsible for this is a war criminal.

Qatar's PM on October 7:

There is no question about October 7 was a massacre and should be condemned, and whoever is responsible for this should be held accountable.

But when we look at the response to October 7, more than 70,000 people being killed, a whole city being wiped out, hospitals being targeted, schools being targeted — whatever the justifications and the arguments, nothing is justifying this.

Piers Morgan: It’s been reported that you’ve lost $24 billion worth in gas sales since the war began because of the reliance on the Strait of Hormuz to get your liquefied natural gas out to the rest of the world.

The International Monetary Fund expects Qatar’s economy to contract by more than 8% this year.

International visitor numbers fell around 80% from March 2025 to March 2026, and Qatar hotels have reportedly been about 60% empty since the war began. None of that is surprising to me. First, is that accurate?

Qatari PM: Well, actually, many of those numbers have been accurate and we reported them as a government.

We have a very firm and clear decision by His Highness since day one of the war that we should be transparent with our partners, with other countries, with the international community.

Anything that hit or damaged our economy should be reported, whether it’s the LNG facility when it was targeted by the Iranian missile, the exports that unfortunately got stopped because of the closure of the strait, or the deficit that we are seeing in our budget.

Germany intends to block Chinese state-owned Cosco from acquiring an 80% stake in Hamburg logistics firm Zippel over national security concerns.

A government memo reportedly warned the deal could create strategic dependencies that China could use as political leverage. Germany’s Economy Ministry is reviewing the transaction, including concerns over Zippel’s software systems and sensitive data.

Germany’s antitrust authority had already cleared the deal in February, saying national security was outside its remit.

Trump meets with AI company CEOs at the White House.

Trump on AI:

We’re going to be signing a document today renaming artificial intelligence to superintelligence officially.

You’re going to see data centers are going to be very popular.

Trump on AI:

There is a belief that there should be tremendous self-regulation.

Q: Who should be held accountable when AI agents commit a crime?

Trump: It’s not AI, it’s SI.

Q: Are you concerned at all that your continued support of data centers could hurt Republicans in the midterms?

Trump: I just have to do what’s right.

Trump on Iran:

I don’t know if they’re going to give up yet, but they will give up.

Trump on Iran:

We took more oil out of the Strait of Hormuz over the last couple of days than at any point in history.

Trump on North Korea:

Kim Jong Un is a friend of mine. He likes Trump, and I like him.

Trump on North Korea:

Kim Jong Un has a large nuclear capacity. You know why? Because they had presidents that didn’t do what I did.

Q: What more can you tell us about the incident at the airbase in the UK?

Trump: I’m just disappointed that they caught terrorists and then they sort of let them go.

How do you give bail to terrorists? So I don’t know.

Trump:

This guy is a monster, and nobody knows.

Trump on North Korea:

As long as I am around, Kim Jong Un is going to be fine. You know why? Because he respects me, and he likes me.

Bill Gates on AI:

AI has crossed the threshold that its ability to empower a bioterrorist to kill hundreds of millions exists today.

The ability to do a cyberattack that scrambles all the bank accounts, shuts down the electric grid — that exists today. And we know that’s the case.

And the reason that exists is because somebody with ill intent can take the AI and cause it to do those things.
