Anti-Algeria as French electoral tactic
Segolene Royal, president of the France-Algeria Association, confirmed that anti-Algerian sentiment or "Algerophobia" has become a political strategy used by some French political forces, especially during the upcoming presidential campaign. The aim is to gain votes by stirring up old colonial issues. She pointed out that this strategy goes beyond the far right and encompasses a broader segment of the political class, emphasizing that such rhetoric does not solve the real problems facing France, such as declining educational rankings, growing debts, a weakened healthcare system, pension system issues, rising fuel prices, violence crimes, and deep-rooted social and economic problems. On the bilateral level, Royal stressed the need to strengthen and intelligently rebuild relations between France and Algeria. She highlighted the importance of understanding with the Mediterranean basin countries and Africa, expressing her desire for French diplomacy to avoid embroiling itself in regional conflicts and instead work towards mediating and reconciling neighboring countries. She considered Algeria a major country in Africa and emphasized that restoring good relations with it is important for France, especially since Algeria is seen as a gateway to the African region.
