ALGIERS, June 3 (Xinhua) -- Rwandan President Paul Kagame began a two-day visit to Algeria on Tuesday, meeting with President Abdelmadjid Tebboune and overseeing the signing of a raft of bilateral agreements aimed at deepening cooperation across a range of sectors.
The two countries inked accords covering telecommunications, digital innovation, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, air transport, and security. Additional deals included visa exemptions for diplomatic passport holders and expanded collaboration in education and scientific research.
In a joint statement following talks in Algiers, Kagame and Tebboune reaffirmed their shared commitment to resolving conflicts in Africa through peaceful means and rejected foreign interference in the continent's internal affairs.
Speaking at a joint press conference, Tebboune described the talks as "rich and constructive," highlighting discussions on political, security, and cultural cooperation, as well as efforts to boost trade between the two nations.
On the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Tebboune said both leaders expressed "deep concern" over the situation in Gaza and called for an immediate end to the violence, unimpeded humanitarian access, and recognition of a Palestinian state based on 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
The Algerian leader added that the meeting also provided an opportunity to exchange views on regional developments, including the security situation in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Enditem
