Algiers Agreement anniversary 2025: Joint statement
The governments of Canada, Japan, Norway, Türkiye and the United Kingdom issued a joint statement on the anniversary of the Algiers Agreement.

Today marks 25 years since the signing of the Algiers Agreement, which brought an end to the conflict between Ethiopia and Eritrea.

We reaffirm our longstanding support for the Agreement and the principles it upholds, including the borders as established by its subsequent Boundary Commission. We call for the respect of the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of both Ethiopia and Eritrea.

In the spirit of the historic 2018 peace agreement between Ethiopia and Eritrea, we call for any tensions or disputes to be resolved peacefully and diplomatically.
