According to the ambassador, “this meeting aims to strengthen relations between the two countries’ investors.” He added that “we are ready to do what must be done to establish a link between Algeria and the United Kingdom.”

Noble also announced another important event, namely the celebration of the 75th anniversary of Operation Torch (1942) – the Allied invasion of Nazi-occupied French North Africa during the Second World War – which will be held on 8 November.

According to the ambassador, the event would also be “an opportunity to commemorate the sacrifices of this country’s people, especially mothers who participated in this war, a sacrifice that has not been properly acknowledged.”
