Casa África's Director General, Luis Padrón, this Wednesday travelled to Algeria accompanying the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, José Manuel García Margallo, who participated in the ministerial meeting of the Non-Aligned Movement.

Besides a speech at the plenary session of the Movement, the Spanish delegation took the opportunity to hold several bilateral meetings with some of the more than 80 ministers for Foreign Affairs present at the meeting.

Among the issues addressed by the Spanish delegation to which Casa África assigned itself is the race to enter the Security Council of the UN next 2015 and 2016 as a non-permanent member.
