Algeria–Tunisia Cooperation Reaches “Maturity” Allowing Both Sides to Remove Barriers, Says PM Ghrieb

Prime Minister Sifi Ghrieb said Friday in Tunis that Algerian–Tunisian cooperation has now reached a level of maturity that enables both countries to establish “innovative and appropriate mechanisms” capable of removing any obstacles hindering the achievement of their shared ambitions.

Speaking during the expanded session of the 23rd Algerian–Tunisian High Joint Commission on Cooperation, Ghrieb stated that “our cooperation and partnership relations have reached a degree of maturity and experience allowing us, as brothers and neighbors, to exchange with the necessary objectivity, guaranteeing the consolidation of everything that is positive and beneficial for both parties, and the adjustment and correction of anything that is not, through the establishment of innovative and appropriate mechanisms that can overcome every obstacle blocking the realization of our common ambitions in various fields.”

The Prime Minister hailed the “remarkable and qualitative” level reached by bilateral ties, stressing the strong political will of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune and Tunisian President Kaïs Saïed to elevate cooperation to a “strategic and integrated partnership.”

He added that the 23rd session of the Joint Commission provides an opportunity to review progress made since the previous session held in Algiers on October 4, 2023, which he described as “the central mechanism for monitoring and supporting the significant momentum witnessed in the cooperation relations between our two brotherly countries.”
