About this episode

The episode discusses how Algeria can capitalize on economic opportunities arising from global conflicts.

With the Ukraine war and the conflict in the Gulf, Algeria finds itself well placed to benefit economically. So Arab Digest editor William Law asked the North Africa and Western Mediterranean energy and security analyst Francis Ghilès to talk about how Algeria can exploit the opportunities and whether a country facing structural economic challenges can get past those challenges to realise the windfalls that wars in Europe and the Middle East are creating.
