Qatar is committed to its investment in Volkswagen, Hessa al-Jaber, Qatar's representative on the carmaker's supervisory board, said on Tuesday.
"I believe VW is a great company. When we invested in VW, that was the right decision. We are really committed to VW," Jaber told reporters in her first public statement on the company since she joined the board last year.
On the diesel emissions test-cheating scandal that hit Volkswagen last year, she said: "They are taking steps to mitigate any future risks on emissions."
Qatar owns 17% of Volkswagen’s common shares and is the third biggest shareholder in the company.
Volkswagen is a great company, says Hessa al-Jaber, Qatar's representative on its board.
