"During these talks, the Minister of State presented his wishes to his brothers on the occasion of the New Year, wishing them health and well-being and more prosperity, progress and complementarity to the peoples of the Maghreb region," said the same source.
These telephone conversations made it possible to present to the brotherly Maghreb countries the action program of the Algerian presidency of the United Nations Security Council during the month of January and to consult on several political issues of common interest.
On this occasion, "the foreign ministers of the brotherly Maghreb countries exchanged their New Year greetings with the Minister of State and expressed their full support for Algeria during its presidency of the Security Council, wishing it every success in this noble mission in the service of Arab and African causes but also of peace and security in the world," according to the press release.
They also welcomed Algeria's efforts within the Security Council, particularly in the current international situation marked by an intensification of polarizations and conflicts at the regional and international levels, the same source concluded.
