                Executive Order 14353 of September 29, 2025

                
Assuring the Security of the State of Qatar

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, and in recognition of the enduring alliance 
                between the United States and the State of Qatar, it is 
                hereby ordered:

                Section 1. Policy. Over the years, the United States 
                and the State of Qatar have been bound together by 
                close cooperation, shared interests, and the close 
                relationship between our armed forces. The State of 
                Qatar has hosted United States forces, enabled critical 
                security operations, and stood as a steadfast ally in 
                pursuit of peace, stability, and prosperity, both in 
                the Middle East and abroad, including as a mediator 
                that has assisted the United States' attempts to 
                resolve significant regional and global conflicts. In 
                recognition of this history, and in light of the 
                continuing threats to the State of Qatar posed by 
                foreign aggression, it is the policy of the United 
                States to guarantee the security and territorial 
                integrity of the State of Qatar against external 
                attack.

                Sec. 2. Commitment. (a) The United States shall regard 
                any armed attack on the territory, sovereignty, or 
                critical infrastructure of the State of Qatar as a 
                threat to the peace and security of the United States.

                    (b) In the event of such an attack, the United 
                States shall take all lawful and appropriate measures--
                including diplomatic, economic, and, if necessary, 
                military--to defend the interests of the United States 
                and of the State of Qatar and to restore peace and 
                stability.
                    (c) The Secretary of War, in coordination with the 
                Secretary of State and the Director of National 
                Intelligence, shall maintain joint contingency planning 
                with the State of Qatar to ensure a rapid and 
                coordinated response to any foreign aggression against 
                the State of Qatar.
                    (d) The Secretary of State shall reaffirm this 
                assurance to the State of Qatar and coordinate with 
                allies and partners to ensure complementary measures of 
                support.
                    (e) The Secretary of State shall continue to 
                partner with the State of Qatar as and when appropriate 
                for conflict resolution and mediation in recognition of 
                the State of Qatar's extensive diplomatic and mediation 
                experience.

                Sec. 3. Implementation. All executive departments and 
                agencies shall take appropriate steps, consistent with 
                law, to implement this order.

                Sec. 4. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order 
                shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or 
the head thereof; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget 
relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

                    (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with 
                applicable law and subject to the availability of 
                appropriations.
                    (c) This order is not intended to, and does not, 
                create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, 
                enforceable at law or in equity by any party against 
                the United States, its departments, agencies, or 
                entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any 
                other person.

                    (d) The costs for publication of this order shall 
                be borne by the Department of State.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    September 29, 2025.
