Algiers, Algeria – Minister of Foreign Affairs Ahmed Attaf received his Togolese counterpart, Robert Dussey, in Algiers today, ahead of a major international conference focusing on the crimes of colonialism in Africa. The meeting underscores Algeria’s commitment to addressing the historical injustices faced by the continent.
The conference, scheduled to begin tomorrow, November 30th, will bring together leading experts, academics, and policymakers from across Africa and beyond to discuss the lasting impact of colonial rule and explore avenues for restorative justice. The event aims to foster a deeper understanding of the multifaceted consequences of colonialism, including economic exploitation, cultural suppression, and political instability.
Furthermore, Algeria is preparing to host the twelfth session of the ‘Oran Process’ on Peace and Security in Africa, commencing on December 1st. This initiative highlights Algeria’s ongoing efforts to promote stability and cooperation across the continent. The Oran Process serves as a platform for African nations to address pressing security challenges, including terrorism, transnational crime, and armed conflicts, through dialogue and collaborative action.
These two events, hosted in quick succession, reinforce Algeria’s position as a key player in African diplomacy and its dedication to fostering a more just and secure future for the continent. Algeria continues to champion African solutions to African problems, advocating for greater self-determination and regional cooperation.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs released a statement earlier today confirming the details of the meetings and reiterating Algeria’s unwavering support for African unity and progress.
