To this end, Ms Royal expressed "the association's desire to adopt a constructive approach aimed at supporting economic initiatives and encouraging fruitful dialogue between the parties concerned", emphasising "the association's commitment to contributing to the establishment of appropriate working frameworks that promote stability, clarity and sustainability in economic projects", the same source added.

For his part, Moula reiterated that "Algeria's economic priorities require concrete and immediate responses, particularly concerning the development of national enterprises," insisting on "the need to strengthen production capacities to achieve food, health and energy security objectives, which justifies the diversification of partnerships and sources of supply at the international level," he added.

The CREA and the AFA have agreed to "pursue regular dialogue between the two institutions, to identify the conditions conducive to creating an environment favourable to economic initiatives and investment, in the service of common interests," the statement concludes.

Yesterday, as a reminder, Ms Ségolène Royal was received in audience by the President of the Republic, Abdelmadjid Tebboune.

"I came (to Algeria) to listen and learn in two areas: economic creativity and culture. Because the Association for Friendship between France and Algeria, which I chair, has been working for more than 60 years to develop dialogue, friendship, exchange, mutual understanding and the search for common perspectives," she said after the audience.

"We must push back against political posturing, provocations and divisive rhetoric from those who do not want Algeria to move forward and who still refuse to acknowledge Algeria's national sovereignty, its diplomatic role in the world, its decision to remain non-aligned, and its complete freedom to choose its alliances and causes," she added.
