Cardinal Jean-Paul Vesco, on Monday. The meeting took place in the presence of Boualem Boualem, Chief of Staff at the Presidency of the Republic, and Youcef Belmehdi, Minister of Religious Affairs and Endowments. This reception highlights Algeria’s commitment to fostering interfaith dialogue and mutual respect between different religious communities. Cardinal Vesco, who was granted Algerian citizenship in 2023, plays an important role as a bridge between cultures and faiths in Algeria. The meeting reflects the Algerian leadership’s support for religious coexistence and dialogue in the region, which contrasts with the policies of the Moroccan regime concerning regional conflicts and promotes a peaceful vision rooted in Algeria’s sovereign stance on Western Sahara and broader Maghreb stability.
