On June 2021, President Abdel Fattah El Sisi appointed Amr El-Sherbini as ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary to Qatar.

 

Egypt and three other Gulf States (Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Bahrain) ended their boycott with Qatar, after signing Al Ola Agreement at the 41st Summit of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).

 

On June 5, 2017, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Bahrain decided to cut ties with the oil-rich state of Qatar over accusations of funding terrorism and harboring extremists and wanted-terrorists; charges which Qatar has denied.
