While he didn’t explicitly name the nation, his statement underscores the nuanced dynamics within the region and Algeria’s selective approach to its partnerships.
In a revealing statement, President Tebboune disclosed that Spain had transferred ownership of a five-star hotel to Algeria. He attributed this transfer to the apprehension of an individual involved in illicit financial activities, stating, “Spain handed over a five-star hotel to us due to one person who smuggled money.” This revelation sheds light on Algeria’s efforts to combat corruption and recover illegally acquired assets stashed abroad, highlighting international cooperation in these endeavors.

Prime Minister Sifi Grib’s concluding remarks following his visit to M’Sila province were featured, outlining three key areas for enhancing Algerian-Slovenian relations. This signals Algeria’s commitment to strengthening its diplomatic and economic ties with European nations.
The passing of Ahmed Taleb Ibrahimi, a prominent Algerian figure, was also a major topic. The report covered the funeral proceedings and shared insights into the final moments of his life. It mentioned a poignant “36-hour last conversation” between Mamoun al-Qasimi and Ahmed Taleb Ibrahimi, as well as Foreign Minister Lamamra’s reflections on lessons learned from the deceased. These segments underscore the profound impact Ibrahimi had on Algerian society and politics.
Further highlighting Algeria’s active role on the international stage, the news bulletin included a powerful address by Minister Attaf at the United Nations. The report also detailed Algeria’s strong response to the coup leaders in Mali, demonstrating Algeria’s commitment to regional stability and the upholding of democratic principles. Finally, the bulletin featured an interview with the Secretary-General of the FLN (National Liberation Front), providing insights into the political landscape within Algeria.
