Algeria’s relations with France about to be rebooted

Algerian President, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, announced in a television interview that the Algerian Ambassador to France, who was recalled in early February after a dispute between the two countries over a French-Algerian activist, will return soon to Paris, according to the Middle East Monitor.

Algeria summoned its Ambassador in protest against what it considered a secret evacuation operation carried out with the help of French diplomats and security, after the French-Algerian activist, Amira Bouraoui, managed to head to France from Tunisia, who was planning to deport her to Algeria.

Referring to the dispute in this regard, Tebboune said in an interview with Al Jazeera that “our relationship with France is fluctuating”.

“The Algerian ambassador will soon return to Paris,” he added, according to the official Algerian Press Agency, quoted from the interview.
