Algeria is back in the game: Why Belarus is betting on North Africa
02.12.2025
At the beginning of the year, Aleksandr Lukashenko received a message from his Algerian counterpart, Abdelmadjid Tebboune. In it, the Algerian president extended an invitation for a visit, expressing his satisfaction with the friendly nature of bilateral relations and hope for their further strengthening. Subsequently, in October, on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of diplomatic relations, Aleksandr Lukashenko sent a reciprocal letter to President Tebboune outlining prospective avenues for interstate cooperation. Now, concluding the year, an official Belarusian delegation is being welcomed in Algiers. This prompts several questions: Why have Belarusian-Algerian relations gained this new momentum? What is the strategic interest in North Africa for Belarus? And what drives Algeria’s pursuit of partners beyond the West? Let’s examine these points.
