After the fall of the Bashar Al Assad regime in Syria, political parties in Algeria are mobilizing to warn of possible repercussions for the Algerian regime, strong support of the deposed Syrian president.
Algeria was one of the only Arab countries to defend the regime of Bashar Al Assad crisis despite the chaos caused by the latter since 2011. The Algerian regime also campaigned for the return of Syria within the Arab League, while its headquarters was frozen due to the human disaster caused by former President Bashar Al Assad.
Since the fall of this dictatorial regime that only Algeria, Iran and Russia supported in the world, the global vise continues to tighten for Algiers, which has chosen to defend the indefensible. The strategic choices of the Algerian regime and the causes it defends are seen, one by one, marked by failures.
Today, Algeria is relegated to the rank of countries defending international illegality and separatist groups, as evidenced by its activism for the regime of Bashar Al Assad and the Polisario, its links with Iran and its acrimonious positions. towards Mali.
Developments in the situation in the Middle East, particularly with the fall of the Bashar Al Assad regime in Syria, have therefore pushed Algerian political parties to sound the alarm calling for the strengthening of the internal front to face the repercussions of support “on the wrong side”.
Never forgetting to cite Morocco, which has become a centerpiece of the language of terror used by the regime to serve its agenda and maintain power, the terms of “national security” et “borders” are used during each episode of internal problem.
“All our borders have become sensitive. We are surrounded by countries that are experiencing internal unrest or are downright dangerous for us,” Soufiane Djilali, president of the Jil Jadid party, told Algerian media TSA.
“In this game of multiple variables, the West has opted for the support of Morocco against Algeria”he added, maintaining that the effects on Algeria of the fall of the Syrian regime “will rather be geopolitical”because Algeria’s relations with the countries of the Middle East will be “indirectly affected”. There will be ideas to establish “new order towards North Africa”he estimated.
Noting that now Algeria’s adversaries are numerous, the politician, however, warned by affirming that “Algeria has its means of defense”. In the same fear of the repercussions of Algeria’s strategic choices, two other political party leaders expressed their concerns following the fall of the Al Assad regime in Syria.
Youcef Aouchiche, first secretary of the Socialist Forces Front (FFS) declared during an extraordinary session of the party’s national council that “the unexpected and spectacular collapse” of the Syrian regime and the accelerating events in the Middle East “remind us of an undeniable truth, namely that our strength lies in our unity and our ability to build resilience capable of sheltering us from these major geopolitical upheavals.”
He criticized the security management of the country “under the motive of maintaining order”who according to him “only weakens the foundations of Algerian society and fuels a climate of distrust of the State, fear and division,” adding that it was necessary to build resilience which would allow Algeria to be “sheltered from these major geopolitical upheavals”.
Aouchiche thus felt that it was time to “promote dialogue and the search for compromises and consensus”, without mentioning whether these were internal compromises or consensus or on international issues.
For his part, Abdelali Hassani Chérif, of the Movement of the Society for Peace (MSP), during a regional conference of party executives, took up the challenges that Algeria will face following the fall of the regime of Bashar Al Assad and developments on the regional and international scene.
He said his party was now committed to “efforts to preserve national unity and strengthen the domestic front”without however explaining the reasons for this choice or how it was going to be implemented.
