Candidates for a Qatari reshuffle

In the absence of official statements, it remains unclear how significant a government reshuffle might be. But several names have repeatedly surfaced: Ahmed Bin Abdullah Al-Mahmoud: There has been some suggestion that heir apparent Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani could be named prime minister, as well as emir, should Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jaber Al-Thani (HBJ) step down, though this would be an unusual step in Qatar. Current deputy prime minister and state minister for foreign affairs Ahmed Bin Abdullah Al-Mahmoud has also been mentioned in connection with the premiership.
