fails WP:BIO. last AfD had far from convincing keep arguments. one argument being all ambassadors are inherently notable which is not true. the 2nd argument is that there exists a lot of arabic coverage. searching his name under gnews in arabic reveals 6 hits, and I'm not sure they even refer to him. keep !voters must establish evidence of actual sources.

 * Delete. I expected there would be at least some coverage about him, but there wasn't. Not notable. VanEman (talk) 16:54, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

 * Ambassadors are accepted as notable for our purposes if they can be shown as the subject of enough media coverage to satisfy WP:GNG — but they are not granted an automatic presumption of notability just because they existed, if passage of GNG is not explicitly shown to be true. Delete unless somebody can find the necessary level of coverage. Bearcat (talk) 23:31, 22 April 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as not at all actually convincing of solid notability, nothing convincing at all. SwisterTwister   talk  07:33, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Searches did not turn up the type of in-depth coverage from independent, reliable sources necessary to show WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 12:38, 25 April 2016 (UTC)
