Smail Debbache, President of the Algeria-China Friendship Association, praised the program for building bridges of communication and understanding between the two nations' youth. "This initiative not only showcases the diversity and appeal of our cultures but also highlights Sinopec's proactive role in fostering mutual learning and heartfelt connections," he said.

Algerian Minister of Culture and Arts Malika Bendouda reflected on her own exposure to Chinese philosophy during her youth, particularly the enduring influence of Confucian thought. She urged young people from both countries to serve as cultural ambassadors, using exchange to forge lasting bonds and ensure intergenerational friendship.

Guo Jianjun, Economic and Commercial Counselor at the Chinese Embassy in Algeria, underscored the deep-rooted friendship tracing back to the ancient Silk Road and now thriving under the Belt and Road Initiative. "Youth are the future of China-Algeria friendship. We hope they will embrace openness and innovation to write new chapters of cooperation," he noted.
