Tunisia PM Djebali to pay a two-day official visit to Algeria

Tunisian Prime Minister Hamadi Djebali is expected to pay a two-days official visit to Algeria on December 3, for the after revolution.

Tunisian sources linked to the file of the visit told Echorouk, that this visit will be an opportunity for the Tunisian Prime Minister to discuss various issues of common interest, notably the movement of people and search the common security files between the two countries, especially those related to border security and the fight against terrorism and smuggling, and ways to boost bilateral cooperation in economy, and sent joint ministerial committees, particularly of an economic nature, with the introduction of the idea of establishing joint projects and field achievements, in the hope of helping Tunisia to get out of its crisis.

The same Tunisian sources added that Djebali would be accompanied by ministerial delegation and important businessmen, without ruling out the idea that Djebali would ask, during his meeting with Algerian officials, for financial aid to help Tunisia overcome the economic and social crisis, even in the form of a deposit.

“Hamadi Djebali will discuss the economic situation of the Maghreb region, and consult with Algerian officials on the issue of religious extremism for the two countries, especially border security in light of the growing threat of Salafi extremism in Tunisia, and the threat of “Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb,” for stability in the region, as Mali crisis will also be on the agenda of the talks”, the sources explained.

Previously, Hamadi Djebali has revealed in an interview with Echorouk, that he told Algerian officials of his intention to make an official visit to Algeria, during his participation in the funeral of President Ahmed Ben Bella, in April 2011, but the silence, which caracterised the Algerian authorities towards its Tunisian counterpart, prevented without responding to Djebali’s request, and the Algerian authorities postpones it more than once, because of the anarchical statements of the Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki, regarding several issues, which were offset by discomfort of Algerian authorities, especially the announcement of a Maghreb summit in the presence of all the Heads of States of the Union, and his criticism for Algeria’s refusal of the Islamists during the nineties, along with allowing Algerians to enter Tunisian territory with the national identification card (ID), instead of passports, without informing the Algerian authorities.
