France expels 12 Algerian officials, recalls ambassador for consultations • FRANCE 24 English

France’s President Emmanuel Macron Tuesday decided to expel 12 Algerian consular and diplomatic officials and recalled the French ambassador in Algiers, his office said, as a spat escalates between both countries. The retaliatory measure came after the former French colony on Sunday ordered 12 French officials from the interior ministry to leave within 48 hours. FRANCE 24’s Yinka Oyetade explains what led to the diplomatic crisis.

  1. Speaking the truth got him 5 years, so why isn't that government glass? We have nuclear energy, why is there still… this? God turned the wicked to pillars of salt and so pillars of salt the wicked shall be. Fair question, answer it and then you may ask me a question about… whatever morality, feelings, rightness; whatever you wish and I will answer.

  3. France project so much weakness. The last eight years even African territories have pushed their diplomats and army out of Africa.

  7. Finally!

    Algeria is and has always been hostile and immature. They constantly accuse and try to make France feel guilty through systematic manipulation.

    Either step up or Algerians should relocate where they find more affinities.
