Algerian Premier to Visit Soon

Algerian Prime Minister Abdelmalek Sellal plans to pay an official visit to Tehran in the near future.

During Sellal’s visit, a number of agreements will be signed between the two countries on expansion of relations between Tehran and Algiers, Tasnim News Agency reported.

In September and in a meeting with Algerian Parliament Speaker Abdul Qadir bin Saleh on the sidelines of the 17th Summit of the Non-Aligned Movement in Venezuela, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani called for stronger cooperation between Tehran and Algiers in the banking, industrial, scientific and tourism sectors.

The Algerian speaker said at the time that the North African country is determined to broaden ties with Iran in all fields.

Bin Saleh also underlined that regional problems must be resolved by the region’s countries themselves, dismissing any foreign interference.
