The Department of State has released "Foreign Relations of the United States, 1981–1988, Volume XXIV, North Africa." This volume is part of a series documenting the foreign policy decisions made during President Ronald Reagan's administration. It provides insight into the Reagan administration’s approach to North Africa and how it related to U.S. geopolitical goals.

The document details various challenges that affected U.S. interests in the region, including political, economic, and strategic issues. It covers bilateral relations with Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia and highlights efforts to resolve the conflict between the Popular Front for the Liberation of Saguia el Hamra and Río de Oro (POLISARIO) and Morocco in Western Sahara.

Furthermore, the volume addresses U.S. responses to initiatives by Algeria, Mauritania, Morocco, and Tunisia aimed at achieving Maghreb unity while dealing with Libyan leader Mu’ammar Qadhafi's influence. The compilation was edited by Chris Tudda.
