ISTANBUL, May 8 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- France is sending its ambassador back to Algeria in a bid to restore "effective dialogue", Anadolu Ajansi reported, citing local broadcaster BFM TV on Friday.

French Ambassador to Algeria Stephane Romatet will accompany Alice Rufo, the minister delegate at the defence ministry, during her visit to the country on Friday, according to the Elysee.

Romatet was recalled by Macron in April 2025, following a diplomatic crisis.

The presidency noted that the move comes as Macron aims to “restore effective dialogue" with Algeria, according to BFM TV.
