In the early hours of Friday, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro arrived in Algeria after a 6-day visit to China.
“I thank Aymene Benabderrahmane, the Prime Minister of the People’s Democratic Republic of Algeria, for the reception and meeting we held during our time in this nation, with which we are united in deep friendship and commitment to a new world,” I have written on social networks.
Maduro assured that both nations “will continue to expand their cooperative relations for the development of their people.”
The Bolivarian leader also visited this African country in June 2022, when he announced the creation of a bilateral commission to develop an “economic, energy, trade, and cultural map”, in order to relaunch relations at a “higher level”.

Vice Minister Castillo: Conscience is the people’s wall to stop conspiracies
Communication, solidarity and fraternity are essential to continue strengthening national consciousness, which is the only wall that the people have to stop conspiracies against our country, said the Vice Minister of Anti-Blockade Policies of the Ministry of Popular Power for Economy and Finance, William Castillo.
In this sense, he assured that the people remain in battle, resisting aggression and avoiding the destruction of the State. However, he recognized that the hybrid war to which our country has been subjected has caused great damage; physical, material and psychological to the people.
“I believe that the Venezuelan people have given a lesson in conscience. I believe that with Nicolás Maduro at the head of the Bolivarian Revolution, in a new environment of economic development, of a new productive model of our own, with greater capabilities, we will end up overcoming the burdens and wounds of the economic war,” he said through a video released on social networks.
“Consciousness… the great strength of the Venezuelan people in the face of foreign aggression,” Castillo wrote on his account on the social network X, ratifying what was expressed in the aforementioned audiovisual.
