CAIRO - Lakhdar Brahimi, the veteran diplomat who is expected to steer Algeria’s political transition after mass protests, has won respect from foreign leaders and his country’s political elite during his long career.
A former foreign minister, Brahimi has carried out troubleshooting missions for the United Nations across several regions and mediated on some of the Middle East’s thorniest conflicts. Bouteflika has said his own final act will be to usher in a new system that will be in “the hands of a new generation of Algerians”.
A career in the foreign service followed, including ambassadorial roles in the 1960s and 70s during Algeria’s post-independence diplomatic heyday, when a youthful Bouteflika was foreign minister.In an interview published in 2010, he said elections that were canceled by the army, with the Islamic Salvation Front poised to win, should never have been held, given the Islamists’ strength.
