| | + | {{Cquote|Studying Qatar’s relationship with illicit financing of terror, this paper seeks to understand the complicated relationship between Qatar’s counterterrorism efforts and the resultingimplications for United States foreign policy. The author argues that Qatar maintains a worryingly close relationship with terror financiers, demonstrated by a permissive legal jurisdiction that allows financiers to operate in the state and the close connections Qatar has historically held with such illicit channeling of funds. The implications of Qatar’s relationship with terror are noted, with a focus on the 2017 Gulf crisis and changes in U.S. foreign policy towards the Gulf. Finally, policy recommendations for the U.S. government are provided that aim to encourage cooperation while mitigating risks of alienation and regional instability.}} |
