New SANA Briefing Paper analyses Algeria’s foreign policy towards Libya in a post-Qaddafi era
The conflict that toppled former Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi in 2011 has affected Algeria in various ways. As a neighbour and a regional power, Algeria has largely looked to dialogue and engagement, playing a key role in international efforts to stabilize Libya. But the chaos that often characterizes its neighbour has moved Algiers to modify some of its long-held principles to ensure its interests are protected. The SANA project’s new Briefing Paper—Too Close for Comfort: How Algeria Faces the Libyan Conflict—explores Algeria’s response to events in Libya and offers insight into future prospects.
