Ymwelais â Qatar rhwng 19 a 22 Tachwedd i gefnogi tîm pêl\-droed Cymru yn ei gêm gyntaf yng Nghwpan y Byd yn erbyn UDA. Cymerais ran hefyd mewn rhaglen ehangach o weithgarwch a gynlluniwyd i hyrwyddo Cymru ar lwyfan y byd a thynnu sylw at ein gwerthoedd.


Fy ymweliad cyntaf oedd wrth osod yr het fwced Gymreig, a oedd yn ganolbwynt i bresenoldeb Cymru yn Doha. Cwrddais â Llysgenhadon Cymdeithas Bêl\-droed Cymru Ian Rush a Jess Fishlock, ac un o’n Llysgenhadon Lleisiau Cymru, Colin Jackson, a chyda’n gilydd fe wnaethom gymryd rhan mewn amrywiaeth o ymgysylltiadau â’r cyfryngau byd\-eang. Parhaodd diddordeb y cyfryngau yng Nghymru drwy gydol yr amser a dreuliais yn Qatar, gan gyflwyno nifer o gyfleoedd i nodi’r rhesymau y tu ôl i’m penderfyniad i deithio i’r Cwpan y Byd hwn \- i gynrychioli Cymru a’i gwerthoedd ar lwyfan y byd. Yna, cwrddais â Gweinidog Diwylliant Qatar i drafod cyfleoedd cydweithio rhwng Amgueddfa Gelf Islamaidd ac Amgueddfa Cymru yn ogystal â thynnu sylw at raglen ddiwylliannol Cymru sy’n digwydd yn Qatar o amgylch Cwpan y Byd. Es i hefyd gyda dirprwyaeth o Amgueddfa Cymru i’r Amgueddfa Gelf Islamaidd, i gymeradwyo eu cynlluniau ar gyfer rhaglen gyfnewid curaduron benywaidd.


Yn dilyn fy nghyfarfod â’r Gweinidog Diwylliant, cwrddais â’r Dirprwy Brif Weinidog ac ag Ysgrifennydd Cyffredinol y Cenhedloedd Unedig i drafod cyd\-ddiddordeb ynghylch datblygu cynaliadwy a chenedlaethau’r dyfodol. Cefais gyfle hefyd i deithio i wersyll hyfforddi Cymru i gyfarfod â thîm pêl\-droed Cymru a mynychu’r seremoni agoriadol a gêm gyntaf y twrnamaint, gan ddathlu pob un o’r 32 tîm yn y gystadleuaeth gyda Chymru yno am y tro cyntaf ers 64 mlynedd.


Ar ail ddiwrnod llawn y rhaglen, cwrddais â Chymdeithas Dynion Busnes Qatar i drafod cyfleoedd masnach a buddsoddi, yn enwedig ynghylch arbenigedd Cymru ym maes seiberddiogelwch, technoleg ariannol, ynni adnewyddadwy a gweithgynhyrchu uwch. 


Dilynwyd hyn gan gyfarfod â Phrif Weithredwr Qatar Airways, y diweddaraf mewn cyfres o drafodaethau am ailddechrau gwasanaeth hedfan o Doha i Gaerdydd a sut y byddai'r llwybr o fudd i allforwyr Cymru. 


Cynhaliodd Llysgennad Ei Fawrhydi i Qatar dderbyniad ar thema Cymru yn Llysgenhadaeth Prydain yn Doha, a fynychais, ynghyd ag Ysgrifennydd Tramor y DU. Gydag oddeutu 200 o westeion, rhoddodd y digwyddiad lwyfan i hyrwyddo Cymru a'i gwerthoedd i gynulleidfa proffil uchel gan gynnwys uwch arweinwyr busnes yn Qatar, cynrychiolwyr o'r sectorau academaidd a diwylliannol, cyn\-fyfyrwyr Prifysgolion Cymru ac arweinwyr busnes allweddol Cymru a Phrydain. Roedd hefyd  yn gyfle i gyfarfod dirprwyaeth yr UDA ac uwch\-gynrychiolwyr yr UDA, gan gynnwys Llysgennad yr UDA i Qatar, i drafod perthynas Cymru â'r UDA. Roedd y derbyniad yn arddangos y goreuon o fwydydd a diodydd Cymreig ac roedd yn cynnwys perfformiadau gan artistiaid a cherddorion Cymreig.


Yn ddiweddarach y diwrnod hwnnw, cwrddais â Llysgennad y DU i Qatar i gael trafodaeth bellach yn dilyn ein cyfarfod ym mis Gorffennaf a’n trafodaeth ar werthoedd.


Rhan olaf fy rhaglen oedd gêm Cymru yn erbyn UDA lle cwrddais am gyfnod byr ag Ysgrifennydd Gwladol Unol Daleithiau America, Anthony Blinken. Gyda channoedd o gefnogwyr Cymru yn y gêm, cefais rannu fy ymateb i’r gôl gyntaf a sgoriwyd dros Gymru mewn rownd derfynol Cwpan y Byd ers dros hanner canrif, wrth i’r tîm sicrhau gêm gyfartal yn ei gêm gyntaf yn y twrnamaint.

I visited Qatar between 19\-22 November to support the Wales men’s football team at its inaugural World Cup game against the USA. I also took part in a wider programme of activity designed to promote Wales on the world stage and draw attention to our values.


My first engagement was at the Welsh bucket hat installation, a focal point for Wales’ presence in Doha. I met the FAW Ambassadors, Ian Rush and Jess Fishlock, and one of our Lleisiau Cymru Ambassadors, Colin Jackson, and we collectively undertook a variety of global media engagements. Media interest in Wales continued throughout the time I spent in Qatar, presenting numerous chances to set out the reasons behind my decision to travel to this World Cup – to represent Wales and its values on the world stage. I then met with the Qatar Minister of Culture to discuss collaboration opportunities between the Museum of Islamic Art and Amgueddfa Cymru as well as highlighting the Welsh cultural programme that is taking place in Qatar around the World Cup. I also accompanied a delegation from Amgueddfa Cymru to the Museum of Islamic Art, to endorse their plans for a female curator exchange programme.


Following the meeting with the Minister for Culture, I met with the Deputy Prime Minister and the UN Secretary General to discuss mutual interest around sustainable development and our future generations. I was also able to travel to Wales’ training camp and meet with the Wales football team to pass on the nation’s best wishes for the game the following day and attend the opening ceremony and first game of the tournament, celebrating all 32 teams in the competition with Wales there for the first time in 64 years.


On the second full day of the programme, I met the Qatar Businessmen’s Association to discuss trade and investment opportunities, particularly around Wales’ expertise in cyber security, fintech, renewable energy and advanced manufacturing.  This was followed by a meeting with the Chief Executive of Qatar Airways, the latest in a series of discussions about the resumption of the airline's Doha \- Cardiff service and how the route would benefit Welsh exporters. 


HM Ambassador to Qatar hosted a Wales\-themed reception at the British Embassy in Doha which I attended, along with the UK Foreign Secretary. With around 200 guests, the reception provided a platform to promote Wales and its values to a high\-profile audience including senior Qatari business leaders, representatives from the academic and cultural sectors, alumni of Welsh Universities and key Welsh and British business leaders. It was also an opportunity to meet the US delegation and senior US representatives, including the US Ambassador to Qatar, to discuss Wales’ relationship with the USA. The reception showcased the best of Welsh food and drink and featured performances from Welsh artists and musicians.


Later that day, I met with the Qatari Ambassador to the UK to follow up on our meeting in July and our discussion on values.


The final part of my programme was Wales’ match against the USA where I met briefly with the United States Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken. I was able to share in the reaction of the hundreds of Welsh supporters at the game, at the first goal scored for Wales at a World Cup final for over half a century, as the team secured a draw in its opening game of the tournament.
