Tunisie Telegraph: Why Algeria Cut Ties with Abu Dhabi After Rabat
Algeria announced the severance of its diplomatic relations with the United Arab Emirates due to escalating deteriorating relations between the two countries. Algeria considers that Abu Dhabi has carried out provocative and hostile acts to a level where it can no longer sustain relations, although no specific incident has been identified as the basis for the decision. This break comes amid increasing regional tensions related to the Western Sahara issue, where Algeria supports the Polisario Front, while the UAE supports Morocco in the Sahara matter, and maintains relations with Israel, which Algeria refuses to normalize. The decision is also part of Algeria's efforts to strengthen its influence in the Sahel region, having deployed military forces to support Nigeria and Niger in their struggles against attempted coups. This signals a shift in Algerian policy from diplomacy to openly using military force. Additionally, Algeria has closed its airspace to Emirati aircraft and recalled the Emirati ambassador, actions that reflect ongoing tension between the two nations and raise questions about a reconfiguration of regional alliances and influence.
