Algeria Cuts Diplomatic Ties with the UAE
Algeria said it exhausted all means to preserve ties after repeated warnings about alleged interference and hostile acts, and gave the UAE ambassador 48 hours.
- On Thursday, Algeria severed diplomatic relations with the United Arab Emirates, accusing Abu Dhabi of interfering in national and regional affairs after exhausting all means to preserve ties.
- President Abdelmadjid Tebboune spent the past year railing against a "small state" for allegedly stirring trouble, while the Algerian Foreign Ministry warned the UAE its "hostile actions" were no longer acceptable despite repeated diplomatic efforts.
- Tensions deepened in February when Algeria initiated cancellation of a 2013 air services agreement, reflecting broader concerns over the UAE's military footprint in Libya and the Sahel destabilizing Algeria's borders.
- The UAE ambassador was given 48 hours to comply with the severance order, though authorities in Abu Dhabi have not yet issued a formal response to the diplomatic break.
- Andreas Krieg, associate professor of security studies at King's College London, noted the break reflects Algeria's conclusion that the UAE's regional playbook cultivating an "axis of secessionists" was being turned toward Algeria itself.
