Liamine Zéroual (Arabic: اليمين زروال ALA-LC: al-Yamīn Zarwāl; Berber: Lyamin Ẓerwal; born 3 July 1941) is an Algerian politician who was the sixth President of Algeria from 30 January 1994 to 27 April 1999.
He was born in Batna and joined the National Liberation Army in 1957, at the age of 16, to fight French rule of Algeria.
After independence, he received training in Cairo, Egypt, then Moscow, Soviet Union (1965-1966) and finally Paris.
After disagreeing with President Chadli Bendjedid about proposals for army reorganisation, he left the ANP in 1989, and briefly became ambassador to Romania.
He was reputed to be politically dialoguist, supporting a partly negotiated solution to the Algerian Civil War.
