Retired French Diplomat Returns With a Provocative Book on Algeria

Barely a week had passed since the truce between Algeria and Paris was established. Just one day after Benjamin Stora, advisor on memory to the French presidency, warned of the risks of the current calm in Algerian-French relations collapsing due to the presence of a political class opposed to this truce. Former French ambassador to Algeria, Xavier Driencourt, announced a new book dedicated to Algerian-French relations. According to excerpts revealed by the author, the book contains numerous provocative statements against Algeria.

The new book is titled “Algeria from 1830 to 2026… Facts and Myths.” A picture of the cover was posted on his X account on Friday, May 15, 2026, and he indicated that the book would be published on June 4 by the French publishing house Perrin.
