Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune announced his candidacy for a second presidential term on July 11, aiming to build a 'new Algeria' amid hopes for economic improvement.
Tebboune's first term was marked by the aftermath of mass protests that led to the ousting of his predecessor, and he now faces skepticism about genuine political reform.
The President cites economic recovery and favorable international conditions as key factors for his administration's progress, despite ongoing challenges such as dependence on energy exports.
