Brits working with Algerians on maritime security

As set out here:
British frigate HMS Northumberland landed in the port of Algiers on Sunday (May 6th) for a three-day stopover as part of the reinforcement of bilateral military cooperation between the Algerian and British navies...
***
The British frigate's captain, Thomas Guy, told the press that the visit aims also at launching a maritime security co-operation programme between the Royal navy and Algeria's maritime forces. The programme is not confined to counter-terrorism efforts or illegal migration, Guy stated. It also includes co-operation in staff training, research and rescue operations.
