| Summary: | The Algerian Constitution recognizes ratification as the only formal procedure for complying with international treaties. The Constitution gave the President extensive powers in ratifying international conventions and treaties, since he is the primary official of the executive branch, as well as having a high status in the political system in Algeria.

However, given the vagueness of the limits set forth in the precise scope of these areas and their lack of coverage in many areas of legislation, the President of the Republic has almost exclusively exercised the competence to comply with treaties, which has adversely affected the role of the legislature in approving treaties falling within the framework of article 153 of the Constitution Seems almost non-existent in current practice |
