Algerian ambassador to return to France in coming days - Elysee

Algeria's ambassador to France will return to Paris in the coming days, French President Emmanuel Macron's Elysee office said in a statement on Friday. The Elysee palace said that during a telephone conversation, Algerian Presdient Abdelmadjid Tebboune had told Macron that the ambassador would return.

In February, Algeria recalled its ambassador to Paris, accusing France of orchestrating the escape of an activist it wants for arrest and triggering a new crisis between the countries after months of increasingly warm relations.
