Algeria

The rapprochement between France and Algeria has been at work since 2000. The French President’s State visit to Algeria from 2 to 4 March 2003 launched a revival in cooperation through the construction of an “exceptional partnership” between the two countries. The French President’s State visit to Algiers and Constantine from 3 to 5 December 2007 made it possible to revise our cooperation profoundly, specifically through the approval of a framework partnership document and the signing of a partnership agreement that has taken over from that of 1986. On the occasion of the Prime Minister’s visit 21-22 June 2008, two other important documents were signed: a cooperation agreement in the field of civil nuclear energy and a cooperation agreement in the area of defence.
