For his part, the Algerian president stressed the need to speed up to complete the Tindouf-Zouerate road project linking the two countries, adding that the accomplishment of this project would open new promising horizons for cooperation between the two brotherly countries. This strategic route extends over a distance of 840 kilometers.
