Algeria Reaffirms Full Support for Lebanon
By Ahmad El-Assasy
Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune has reiterated Algeria's unwavering solidarity with the people of Lebanon under all circumstances. His statement came after receiving the Lebanese Army Commander, General Joseph Aoun, in Algiers—marking a significant diplomatic encounter aimed at deepening bilateral ties.
During the joint press conference, President Tebboune described the meeting as "constructive and of great interest", highlighting Algeria's commitment to enhancing cooperation with Lebanon.
'We consider this visit a milestone in reinforcing the strong and renewed fraternal relations between Algeria and Lebanon. It is a valuable opportunity to expand and deepen our cooperation,' Tebboune stated.
The two sides agreed to expedite preparations for the first session of the Algerian-Lebanese Joint Committee, which Tebboune described as a 'new starting point' for bilateral collaboration.
President Tebboune reaffirmed Algeria's 'firm and constant' support for Lebanon's sovereignty, peace, and stability. He emphasized Algeria's role at the United Nations Security Council in condemning Israeli violations of Lebanese territory and expressed backing for the renewal of the mandate of UN peacekeeping forces in southern Lebanon.
The talks also addressed major regional issues. Both leaders expressed grave concern over the deteriorating humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the ongoing Israeli military campaign.
'We underscored the urgent need to stop the genocide and starvation tactics against our people in Gaza, and to foil any plans for forced displacement,' President Tebboune said.
In addition, the two leaders voiced alarm over recent developments in Syria, particularly foreign interventions and repeated assaults on the country's sovereignty.
To navigate these critical regional challenges, Tebboune stressed the importance of activating the long-dormant political consultation mechanism between the two nations.
'Unfortunately, this mechanism has not been convened since it was established in 2002. We now reaffirm our commitment to resuming this framework to foster mutual dialogue and political coordination,' he concluded.
