Algeria expels more French diplomats as tensions escalate in ongoing row

  • On Sunday, Algeria ordered the expulsion of 15 French diplomatic staff temporarily stationed at its embassy in Algiers, escalating tensions between the two countries.
  • This action follows a series of diplomatic disputes rooted in France's support for Morocco's Western Sahara position and previous expulsions exchanged between the states since April 2025.
  • Algerian authorities accused the French officials of lacking proper accreditation and violating entry procedures, while France denied the allegations, affirming the agents held valid diplomatic passports for short-term missions.
  • French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot condemned the expulsions as "incomprehensible and brutal," pledging that France will respond immediately and proportionally to defend its interests.
  • The expulsion further damages the already strained France-Algeria relations, risking setbacks to any fragile reconciliation and affecting diplomatic, security, and economic cooperation.
