Britain’s prime minister asked Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani to consider further funding to help Britain’s push to develop cities in the north of the country.
Sheikh Tamim’s first official visit to Britain since becoming emir in 2013 will include talks with Prime Minister David Cameron and a meeting with Queen Elizabeth.
The motion due for debate in Britain’s lower house of parliament will ask parliamentarians whether they believe the government should recognise the state of Palestine.
