The Qatari government has admitted that it is facing a severe shortage in hotel rooms and that it will not be able to accommodate all the fans of the World Cup, which will be held next November, after long years of deceit, bragging and insistence on its ability to accommodate a championship of this size. The Australian website "De Marge" reported that what is happening in Qatar is a major disaster, as for the first time in the history of the World Cup, the host country fails to find hotel rooms for the fans.

According to the Turkish Interior Minister’s statements to the media, Ankara also trained Qataris on this task before the World Cup.

In relation to the World Cup, more than a million fans from around the world are expected to attend; our personnel will work to establish security.

The Turkish Interior Minister also noted that they have trained 677 security personnel from Qatar in 38 different areas, without going into details, nor did he specify the percentage of Turkish security personnel from the total who will work to secure the major sporting event.
