Programme

Last year, Russia and Algeria marked the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations. Today, one of the primary objectives is to increase and diversify trade between the countries. Algeria has for many years been one of Russia’s leading trade partners in Africa. At the end of 2022, it ranked third among African countries in terms of volume of trade with Russia, but the potential for trade and economic cooperation is far from exhausted. What points of growth in cooperation in energy, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, cutting-edge technologies and other industries are obvious today? How can we best support the establishing of ties between small and medium-sized businesses in both countries? What support can the governments of both states provide for the development of economic cooperation in the current conditions?
