3rd meeting of Algerian-French High Level Intergovernmental Committee Sunday in Algiers
The third session of the Algerian-French high level Intergovernmental Committee (CIHN), will be held Sunday in Algiers, under the joint chairmanship of the two countries’ Prime Ministers Abdelmalek Sellal and Manuel Valls.
This meeting is part of Valls visit to Algiers, on Saturday and Sunday. This visit will be marked by bilateral meetings between Algerian and French senior officials to discuss prospects of cooperation in the sectors of industry, agriculture, water and environment, education, transport, interior and justice, higher education, culture and religious affairs.
Besides, the third session of CIHN will be the opportunity to consider four draft agreements in the electricity and hydrocarbons, industrial engineering and management systems, as well as consulting and digital services.
Moreover, the Algerian-French partnership forum will hold its third meeting in order to define, encourage and boost the productive partnerships and accompany these enterprises and traders until the signing of a maiden agreement.
The third session of CIHN, which will be attended by the members of both governments, is expected to make an assessment of the bilateral roadmap resulted from the previous two sessions and the Joint Economic Committee between Algeria and France (COMEFA).
New goals in all the aspects of the bilateral relationship such as construction, industrial subcontracting, food, digital, health and vocational training will be fixed.
The High-level Intergovernmental Committee is a framework established as part of the Algiers Declaration on Friendship and Cooperation between Algeria and France, signed in December 2012 by President of the Republic, Abdelaziz Bouteflika and his French counterpart, Francois Hollande, after his state visit to Algeria.
