Algeria terminates the visa exemption agreement with France for diplomatic passport holders.
On August 8, Jin10 reported that on August 7, local time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and National Community Abroad of Algeria issued a statement, stating that they summoned the charge d'affaires of the French embassy in Algeria that day and delivered two ordinary notes to him. The statement indicated that in the first note, Algeria formally notified France that it had decided to terminate the protocol on the mutual visa exemption for holders of diplomatic and consular passports signed by the two countries in 2013, and "immediately requires French citizens holding diplomatic and consular passports to obtain a visa," and that "Algeria reserves the right to apply the same conditions for issuing such visas as those applicable to Algerian citizens by the French government."
