He stressed that Algeria has consistently fulfilled its responsibilities as an energy supplier and remains committed to meeting its obligations toward European partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tebboune explained that his official visit was intended to strengthen economic, political and security cooperation with Germany. He also welcomed progress toward the launch of a new hydrogen corridor, which could later facilitate the transport of renewable energy resources, including electricity, from North Africa to Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The President drew attention to the growing number of major projects being implemented in Algeria by German companies. He attributed this trend partly to investment reforms, including the introduction of a one-stop service designed to simplify administrative procedures for investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Tebboune, German companies have submitted investment proposals worth nearly $900 million through Algeria\u2019s one-stop investment platform. The projects reflect increasing interest in the Algerian market and its opportunities in energy, industry and advanced technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On security cooperation, Tebboune said the issue had been discussed in detail during his talks with German officials, adding that relations in this field were progressing positively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His remarks came as Sonatrach and German energy company VNG signed a new natural gas supply agreement in Berlin, further strengthening the two countries\u2019 energy partnership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The agreement and investment discussions form part of a broader Algerian-German effort to diversify economic cooperation, reinforce European energy security and expand partnerships in natural gas, green hydrogen and renewable energy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune reaffirmed on Thursday that Algeria is a reliable natural gas supplier to Europe, while highlighting Germany\u2019s growing interest in securing Algerian energy supplies.
