Qatar is seeking to assist Pakistan in military assistance in the 2022 World Cup, hoping for the alliance to tackle terrorism. Gulf Prime Minister met Pakistani military chief in Qatar on Tuesday and expressed an interest in getting support for the 32-team contest, the Pakistani army said in a statement. Support will include training and even provision of military personnel for the month event. Pakistan's proposed role is part of a discussion on wider military cooperation between Muslim-majority countries. With the World Cup attracting up to one million fans, and over a billion viewers of television, security is one of the biggest concerns of organizers.
The Qatar Government Communications Office did not report the situation immediately.
At home, Pakistan's military has been fighting with Taliban insurgents and other Islamic groups over the past two decades. Most international cricket teams then stopped touring after the Sri Lankan team attacked them in 2009. Visited in 2015 by a squad in Zimbabwe killed by a suicide bomb outside one of the stadiums.
Qatar's leadership promised to spend $ 200 billion on the transformation of the country ahead of the first World Cup to be held in the region. It is surprising that a small Gulf emission in 2009 won a victory for candidates, including the United States, the hosting event.
The presence of the arms of the nearest 198th percentile is likely to go to the World Cup. The only other link to the event is its member-made factories, which provided equipment for previous competitions.
