Global Policy published on 27 July 2022 an analysis titled "Algeria and China: Shifts in Political and Military Relations" by Yahia H. Zoubir.
The author looks at China's political and military relations with Algeria through role theory that incorporates the notion of hedging. He concludes that though each partner has fulfilled the other's expectations, China has not fully done so regarding the conflict in Western Sahara without, however, resulting in distrust or tensions between the two.
