  President Emmanuel Macron and key members of the government will meet in the coming days to decide how to respond to what Paris deems as growing hostility from Algeria, France's foreign minister said on Wednesday.

The article discusses the escalating tensions between France and Algeria, particularly highlighted by French Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné's comments on the need for a response to Algeria's perceived hostility. This comes in the context of Algeria's recent actions, including the recall of its ambassador from France and the suspension of a 2022 friendship treaty. The tensions have been exacerbated by France's stance on the Western Sahara issue, where it has not recognized Morocco's sovereignty, a position that has indirectly strained relations with Algeria. Additionally, the article mentions the broader geopolitical implications, including France's efforts to maintain influence in Africa amidst competition from other global powers like Russia and China. The situation is further complicated by domestic political pressures in France, with some politicians advocating for a tougher stance against Algeria.
