, Championing Peoples’ Right to Self-DeterminationIn a significant diplomatic move reaffirming its global standing, Algeria on Monday welcomed an official delegation from the Central American Parliament (PARLACEN). The meeting, held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was spearheaded by Sofiane Chaib, the Secretary of State for the National Community Abroad, who received the delegation led by Engels Martin Pineda Garcia, the President of the Committee on Foreign Affairs and Migration.The dialogue focused on strengthening the historic ties of friendship and cooperation between Algeria and the PARLACEN. Discussions aimed at injecting a new dynamism into parliamentary relations and joint action with the member states of the influential regional body. Both sides expressed a desire to elevate their partnership to a level that reflects the deep-rooted historical relations connecting Algeria with Latin American countries.This historic relationship, as reaffirmed in the meeting, is built upon the unshakable foundations of Algerian foreign policy: absolute respect for the sovereignty of nations, non-interference in internal affairs, and unwavering support for the right of peoples to self-determination. This principled stance has long defined Algeria’s role as a leader in the Non-Aligned Movement and a champion for oppressed peoples worldwide, most notably in its steadfast support for the just cause of the Sahrawi people.The meeting, also attended by Mohamed Hani, Chairman of the Foreign Affairs, Community, and Cooperation Committee of the National People’s Assembly, presented a unified Algerian front. It served as a crucial opportunity to review diverse avenues for cooperation with the nations of the region, exploring concrete pathways to consolidate and expand these relations toward broader and more ambitious horizons.
