QatarEnergy's CEO, Saad Al-Kaabi, has expressed his dissatisfaction with the European Union's new directive on ESG reporting standards for large companies. He believes that these requirements pose unnecessary challenges for companies like his own.

Al-Kaabi also raised concerns about the EU's intentions regarding Qatari liquefied natural gas (LNG) and whether they are seeking to exclude it from their markets. His remarks highlight the concerns surrounding compliance costs and the potential impact of the EU's regulations on energy suppliers.

Al-Kaabi emphasized the importance of receiving clear guidance from European authorities regarding their stance on energy imports, especially considering the ongoing global energy demands.
