Paris and Algiers had just tried to relax, because twelve French embassy officials are supposed to leave the country. The dispute is about arrest in France – and an influencer.
According to Paris, Algeria has asked twelve French embassy to leave the North African country. The background is a dispute over three Algerians in France. “The Algerian authorities ask twelve of our civil servants to leave the Algerian territory within 48 hours. This decision would be a response to the arrest of three Algerian citizens who have committed serious crimes in French territory,” said France’s Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot to the TF1-LCI broadcaster.
Barrot asked Algeria to forego the expulsion. “If the decision to show our civil servants will be maintained, we have no choice but to react immediately than to react immediately,” he said. According to the Paris Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it was a one -time process since the independence of the North African country in 1962.
The dispute between Paris and Algiers, after both countries had just tried to normalize their tense relationships. Just a week ago, Barrot had traveled to Algeria for this purpose.
On Friday, three Algerians were arrested in France, who are said to have tried to delay a government -critical Algerian influencer in France. Among those arrested, an employee of the Algerian Consulate in Créteil near Paris is said to be.
