According to the APS news agency, "our security cooperation and our joint war against terrorism are the cornerstone of our bilateral relations, so both countries are working to secure stability and achieve prosperity in North Africa and the Sahel region."

On the economic side, Moore Aubin stressed the importance of continuing to develop the "strong partnership" between the two countries, stressing that "a hundred American companies operate in Algeria", in addition to significant investments in several sectors.

As for tourism, the US ambassador expressed admiration for the tourist sites she visited in Algeria, adding that the number of American tourists would be high if a direct flight was opened between the two countries.

On the cultural side, Ms. Moore Aubin reiterated her country’s support for Algeria’s efforts to expand the scope of use of the English language, adding that the number of American cultural centers in Algeria would be increased to five after the American Embassy had obtained approval to open another center in the wilaya of Bechar.
