Boumedienne, who studied at Cairo's Al Azhar University, is one of the few government leaders who regard Arabic as their first language. Even so, when Algeria's boss -wearing coat, tie and shirt in contrast to the open-neck military khakis of his guest-appeared in public with Castro, he looked more like a French petit bourgeois than an Arab revolutionary...
