A new poll by Toluna-Harris Interactive for MGH Partners, conducted May 5-11, 2026, reveals that French public opinion strongly favors Morocco over Algeria in the context of France's foreign policy ahead of the presidential election.
The survey, described as a five-year barometer, indicates that Morocco is perceived as a more reliable partner, while Algeria's standing has declined. The results come amid ongoing tensions between France and Algeria over historical and diplomatic issues.
No specific approval ratings or margin of error were provided in the source article. The poll's timing coincides with the final weeks of the French presidential campaign, with the first round scheduled for April 2027.
