Algeria and Mali are currently undergoing a diplomatic reset
Algeria and Mali are currently undergoing a diplomatic reset to repair relations after a severe almost two-year conflict brought ties to an all-time low.
The fallout peaked in late 2023 when Mali’s military junta abandoned the 2015 Algiers peace accord, accusing Algeria of political interference and sheltering rebels.
Tensions culminated March last year when the Algerian military shot down a Malian military drone, leading to a complete rupture that included the withdrawal of ambassadors and airspace bans.
Earlier this week, Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, officially received Mali’s Prime Minister, Abdoulaye Maïga.
The high-level meeting was to discuss finally mending relations between the two nations.
