Algerian envoy Attaf delivers presidential message to Niger's president
Ahmed Attaf, minister of State for foreign affairs, diaspora and African affairs, arrived in Niamey on 4 November 2026, acting as a special envoy of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune.
He was received by General Abdelrahman Tchiani, Niger's president and head of state, and handed him a written message from President Tebboune expressing great satisfaction with the level of bilateral relations and reaffirming a commitment to strengthen them.
The two leaders reviewed recent developments in the Sahel region and discussed other regional and international issues of mutual concern.
Attaf said Algeria is ready to work with all countries in the region to support security, stability and joint coordination.
The visit follows the Algerian foreign minister's trip to Chad on 3 November 2026, where he also delivered a letter from President Tebboune to his counterpart Mohamed Idriss Deby.
