Trump made the guarantee in an executive order , dated Monday but revealed on Wednesday. The order highlighted the close relationship between Qatar and the United States, bound by “close cooperation, shared interests, and the close relationship between our armed forces.” Reflecting this, he granted Qatar one of the highest security guarantees outside of the Article 5 guarantees of NATO.
