Strict measures against market speculation in Algeria

Prime Minister Sifi Ghrieb has demanded the immediate implementation of legal and coercive actions against those responsible for product shortages and price manipulation. The announcement followed the launch of a new digital platform designed to monitor the availability of basic goods across all provinces. This initiative, part of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune's strategy, aims to protect citizens' purchasing power through an organized and transparent supply chain involving farmers and traders. Additionally, Finance Minister Mohamed Lamine Lebbou confirmed at the National People's Assembly the government's commitment to curbing inflation and speculation by strengthening market oversight and digital surveillance mechanisms.
