Qatari leader to visit Bosnia next month

Qatari Emir Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa al-Thani will visit Bosnia at the beginning of next month, said a Qatari diplomatic source.

This source told ArabicNews.com that Sheikh Hamad's visit will directly precede his visits to Spain, France and Portugal.

The source added that Sheikh Hamad will convey Qatar's support for economic and aid projects in Bosnia to enhance the relations between the two countries and that Sheikh Hamad and Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic will discuss methods of confronting the conditions to which Moslems in Europe and around the world are exposed.

This visit comes according to Izetbegovic's invitation to Sheikh Hamad. Izetbegovic paid a visit to Qatar in March.
