Emmanuel Macron arrived in Algeria on Thursday August 25, for an official visit. After the diplomatic quarrels between the two countries, it is time for reconciliation.

What are the challenges of Emmanuel Macron’s trip to Algeria on Thursday August 25? “On the memorial level first, Emmanuel Macron during these three days will try to pacify the relations still on edge between France and Algeria.“, reports journalist Guillaume Daret, special envoy to Algiers (Algeria). The French president had angered Algiers last year, by “accusing the politico-military system of maintaining a ‘return to memory‘”, continues the journalist.

Also on the menu for discussions, the question of visas as well as Algerian gas, which “arouses all the desires of Europeans“, while Europe seeks to reduce its dependence on Russian gas. However, Algeria is one of the largest gas producers in the world. Officially, the Elysée however affirms that “this is not the main topic [du] shift” by Emmanuel Macron. “Hard to believe that the two heads of state will not approach it”however, comments the journalist.
