Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune received a phone call from his Palestinian counterpart, Mahmoud Abbas, where a meeting was arranged after Eid al-Fitr.
Abbas expressed, according to a statement issued by the Algerian presidency, his appreciation and thanks to Algeria for its continuous support for the Palestinian cause, especially after the recent UN resolution.
According to the statement, Tebboune stressed the firmness of his country’s positions and support for international efforts towards achieving the right and enabling the Palestinian people to regain their legitimate rights.
The two leaders agreed on a visit by the Palestinian president to Algeria after Eid al-Fitr, with the aim of strengthening bilateral cooperation and diplomatic exchange between the two countries.
It should be noted that the Security Council adopted a resolution on a ceasefire in Gaza during the month of Ramadan, aimed at achieving a permanent and sustainable ceasefire, with 14 members in the Council in favor, with the United States abstaining.
Algeria was among the sponsors of the draft resolution, as the only Arab member of the Security Council, reflecting its commitment to support international efforts to achieve peace and stability in the region.
