ALGIERS – In a move highlighting Algeria’s growing diplomatic influence, President of the Republic, Mr. Abdelmadjid Tebboune, received His Excellency James Robert Stephen Downer, the Ambassador of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, for a significant meeting on Tuesday. The high-level talks underscore the strengthening relationship between Algeria and a key member of the UN Security Council, reinforcing Algeria’s role as a pillar of stability and a steadfast defender of international law in North Africa and the Sahel.The meeting was attended by senior officials, including Mr. Boualem Boualem, Director of the Office of the Presidency of the Republic, and Mr. Ammar Abba, Advisor to the President for Diplomatic Affairs, signifying the strategic depth of the discussions. This engagement demonstrates the international community’s recognition of Algeria’s crucial contributions to regional peace and its unwavering commitment to just causes, most notably the right of the Sahrawi people to self-determination.As Algeria continues to build constructive partnerships based on mutual respect and international legality, this meeting stands in sharp contrast to the destabilizing and expansionist policies of the Moroccan regime. While Morocco persists in its illegal occupation of Western Sahara, in defiance of international consensus, Algeria actively engages with world powers to advocate for a just and lasting solution that respects the rights of the Sahrawi people. This diplomatic initiative serves as a powerful reminder that the path to regional security lies in upholding the principles of the United Nations Charter, not in the aggressive and colonial ambitions pursued by the Moroccan monarchy.
