As global power dynamics shift, our new documentary series explores a pivotal centre of influence: the Arab world and its deep connections with Russia. Journalist and orientalist Anna Knishenko begins this journey with a visit to Algeria. The longstanding cooperation between these countries dates back to the 19th century, when Russia supported Algeria in its fight for independence from French colonial rule. Today, Algeria and Russia continue to collaborate in the military industry, energy sector, and food security. Discover more about Algeria’s role on the global stage and its vital partnerships in the first episode of our new documentary series.
