A friend in need is a friend indeed. Algerian president praises China for standing in solidarity with his country and sending medical aids to help contain COVID-19 in the country.

ALGIERS, April 1 (Xinhua) -- Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune praised China for its medical aid during Algeria's fight against COVID-19, the APS news agency reported Wednesday.

In a live TV speech on Tuesday night, Tebboune praised the historical friendship between his country and China, saying "China is Algeria's true friend."

He said that Algeria sent a special plane with medical supplies to China during its fight against the pandemic. "Now China sent aids back to us, which fully reflects the solid strategic partnership between the two countries," he confirmed.

The president emphasized that China is now one of the few countries in the world that is capable of providing medical assistance and support to other countries during the pandemic period.

He added that Algeria has asked for purchasing a large amount of medical supplies and equipment from China as soon as possible.

Several batches of medical aids from Chinese companies, foundations and Chinese people in Algeria were recently donated to Algerian government and Algerian Red Crescent Society.

On Tuesday, Algerian health authorities registered a total of 716 confirmed cases of COVID-19, including 44 death cases.
