Algeria’s Minister of Foreign Trade and Export Promotion, Professor Kamal Rezig, confirmed Thursday in Ankara that formal bilateral negotiations have officially begun toward concluding a preferential trade agreement between Algeria and Turkey, marking a pivotal step in deepening economic ties between the two nations.<\/p>\n
Speaking exclusively to dzwatch at the opening of the Algeria-Turkey Economic Forum, Rezig described the anticipated agreement as a “qualitative leap” in bilateral economic relations, opening markets to 20 products where each country holds competitive advantages.<\/p>\n
The forum, attended by over 150 Algerian and Turkish operators across agriculture, industry, energy, and tourism sectors, coincides with President Abdelmadjid Tebboune’s official state visit to Turkey.<\/p>\n
Rezig highlighted remarkable trade growth, with bilateral exchange rising from $4.7 billion in 2013 to over $6 billion in 2024, making Turkey Algeria’s fifth-largest trade partner. Algerian exports reached $3 billion in 2025 against $2.3 billion in imports, reflecting a healthy trade balance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
