Algiers, Algeria | June 14th, 2024 — During the proceedings of the G7 Summit held in Bari, UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed was seen courteously bending towards Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune during their conversation, while the latter remained seated. This moment, rich in diplomatic implications, was widely shared across social media, sparking extensive discussions.
The scene unfolded as Mohammed bin Zayed, having left his designated spot, navigated through several world leaders to engage directly with President Tebboune. Demonstrating a gesture of respect, he bent forward, speaking to President Tebboune who chose to remain seated, listening attentively without rising.
This interaction is particularly noteworthy given the historical context of relations between Algeria and the UAE. The UAE has attempted to exert influence over Algeria, including through media campaigns. President Tebboune’s steadfast stance, famously articulated on March 30 where he indirectly addressed such attempts by a “brotherly country” (widely interpreted as the UAE), declaring that “Algeria will not kneel,” resonates with this moment of diplomatic courtesies.
The image of bin Zayed bending towards Tebboune has gone viral, symbolizing Algeria’s rising influence on the global stage. Analysts suggest that this act of deference reflects a recognition of Algeria’s pivotal role in regional and international affairs. This development underscores the country’s assertive foreign policy under President Tebboune’s leadership. The respectful approach by the UAE President is seen as a testament to Algeria’s unwavering position and its successful navigation through geopolitical complexities.
