“I ask the Algerian authorities to renounce these expulsion measures unrelated to the current legal proceedings,” said Jean-Noël Barrot in a written declaration transmitted to journalists. “If the decision to send back our agents was maintained, we will have no choice but to answer them immediately,” he warned. Among the eleven agents that Algiers wishes to expel, some are civil servants of the Ministry of the Interior, said a diplomatic source.

Regain de tension

Friday, three men, including one employee in one of the consulates of Algeria in France, were indicted (charged) in Paris for arrest, kidnapping, sequestration or arbitrary detention followed by liberation before the 7th day, in relation to a terrorist enterprise, according to the French National Prosecutor’s Office (PNAT).

In this case which concerns the opponent of the Algerian regime Amir Boukhors, influencer nicknamed Amir Dz, these men are also prosecuted for association of criminal terrorist criminals. They were placed in pre -trial detention. The Algerian Ministry of Foreign Affairs had thundered on Saturday evening against “this new unacceptable and unspeakable development (which) will cause great damage to Algerian-French relations”.
