Butaflika to visit Russia

Algerian President Abdul Aziz Butaflika will arrive in Moscow on Tuesday in an official visit to federal Russia which will last for several days at the official invitation of the Russian President Vladimir Putin.

During this visit, Butaflika will hold talks with Putin and with high ranking Russian officials dealing with bilateral relations between the two countries and means of developing them in economic, trade and investment fields and the possible Russian contribution to modernizing the Algerian infrastructure installations built earlier with the former Soviet Union as well as discussing the Middle East question, the situation in the Mediterranean area and situation of the world oil market.

Worthy mentioning, this is the first visit for Butaflika to Russia after he assumed the post of the President in his country.
