The Chairman of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation of the eighth convocation. Elected in single mandate constituency № 163 (Saratov constituency - Saratov Oblast)
met with the Speaker of the National People’s
Assembly of the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria Brahim Boughali in Algiers.
Vyacheslav Volodin noted the contribution of leaders of the two states – Vladimir Putin and Abdelmadjid Tebboune – to the development of relations between Russia and Algeria. “We should do everything to make our own contribution within the parliamentary dimension to the development of relations between our states,” he added.
Vyacheslav Volodin recalled that in 2023 during the visit of the Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune to Russia, there was signed an agreement on strategic partnership and cooperation between Russia and the People’s Democratic Republic of Algeria.
“It is very important to provide legislative support to implement the agreement,” emphasized Vyacheslav Volodin.
According to the Chairman of the State Duma, a creation of new formats of cooperation will be an important aspect of the development of inter-parliamentary dialogue.
“We have been dealing with sanctions for more than 10 years, and I can say one thing: during this time, Russia has become the fourth world economy and the largest European economy. And those states that initiated sanctions against us, precisely the USA, have lost its leading position, dropped to second place,” noted the Chairman of the State Duma.
“They wanted to make Russia weak, but, in fact, the Russian economy has only become stronger,” said the Speaker of the National People’s Assembly of Algeria.
According to Brahim Boughali, the Republic is interested in further strengthening of bilateral cooperation with the Russian Federation. “We are linked by historical ties that appeared just after the declaration of independence of our country. We seek to develop economic, cultural and scientific cooperation. All this should strengthen the political dialogue between our countries at all levels, in various fields,” stressed the Speaker of the National People’s Assembly of Algeria.
“The current international system is not able to effectively address the challenges our countries face. This requires additional efforts to develop our dialogue,” added Brahim Boughali.
