A delegation led by Mr Florian ERMACORA, Head of Unit for North Africa in the European Commission’s department responsible for EU neighbourhood relations, paid a working visit to Algeria from 27 to 30 January 2025. The aim of this visit was to hold consultations on cooperation between the European Union and Algeria for the period 2025-2027. In addition to the EU’s neighbourhood department, the delegation also included representatives from the European Union’s energy, home affairs, migration and foreign affairs departments.

 

During this mission, Mr ERMACORA reaffirmed the EU’s willingness to give new impetus to cooperation between Algeria and the European Union as part of the development of a “new pact for the Mediterranean”. The delegation was able to meet with representatives of several Algerian ministerial departments, including Foreign Affairs, Energy and Mines, Water Resources, Industry, Trade and Finance. European officials were also received by the Algerian Investment Promotion Agency (AAPI). During these meetings, discussions focused on future cooperation in the areas of investment, trade facilitation, renewable energy, migration, culture and job creation.
