At a press conference at
the US Embassy in Algiers, Ms Moore Aubin said that the area of security
cooperation, joint efforts to combat terrorism and economic partnership are
among the most important areas of relations between the two countries.
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.
In the same context, it
stated that the proposed air line between Algiers and New York, which "is
currently at the stage of discussions between the two parties, is capable of
strengthening the economic ties between the two countries".
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.
The number of visas
issued by the United States to Algerians increased in 2022 by 10% compared to
2019, the Ambassador said.
