President of Algeria, Abdelaziz Bouteflika who currently suffers from stroke dismissed the Prime Minister Abdelmadjid Tebboune from official duties on Tuesday. The former Prime Minister had barely completed his third month in office before he was fired.
Opposition parties have expressed doubts on the leadership of the 80-year-old and wonder if he fully controls the reins of presidential power in the oil-rich, gas-exporting country. According to a source who spoke on condition of anonymity, 71-year-old Tebboune was dismissed because his vision was not in accordance with that of the president. The source also cited communication problems between them.
