This week in Algeria
Algeria's diplomatic engagement was a key focus this week, with National Assembly Speaker Ibrahim Boughali meeting Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko to strengthen strategic partnership and new agreements signed with Qatar on anti-corruption. The country also actively pursued regional stability, uniting with Egypt and Tunisia to push for peace in Libya and advancing the Trans-Saharan Road Project in Chad. Domestically, President Tebboune extended Eid al-Adha greetings, which was declared a public holiday, and the ANP demonstrated its strike force with the "EL AAHD 2026" military exercise.
