Qatar is a member of the World Trade Organisation and its trade policies create a competitive international trading market. The government supports the growth and success of businesses in a bid to diversify the economy. Qatar is a member of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), which also includes Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. Following the blockade by Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain and Egypt, Qatar strengthened relations with a number of other countries such as Turkey, Oman, Kuwait, and India, and increased trade routes to mitigate exports and imports.
