Boosting Algerian - Syrian relations

The Algerian Minister of Tourism and Handicrafts Abdel Kader Bin Karina is currently in Syria on a week-long official visit which aims to strengthen tourism cooperation between Algeria and Syria.

The Algerian Minister said that the Algerian President's visit to Syria gave a boost to the relations of the two countries. Algerian President Liamine Zeroual paid Syria a three-day visit last September during which many economic and trade agreements were signed to boost the relations between the two countries.
