Algiers – The president of the People’s Voice Party, Lamine Assmani, underlined on Tuesday the central role that Algeria’s political class must play in strengthening state institutions and elevating political practice in the country.
Speaking to the press after being received by President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, Assmani stressed that building a true state of institutions requires a “robust and constructive political culture.” He explained that beyond representing the concerns of citizens, political actors bear the responsibility of offering objective critique and positions supported by facts and figures, thereby contributing to the enhancement of political life in Algeria.
Assmani described his meeting with President Tebboune as part of a tradition of dialogue established by the head of state, particularly in moments that demand consultation. During the exchange, discussions touched on the revision of the political parties’ law and the broader reinforcement of Algeria’s political system with the ultimate goal of consolidating a strong institutional state.
The People’s Voice Party leader emphasized that the encounter enabled him to better appreciate the president’s perspective on the significant progress achieved, the challenges faced, and the national stakes ahead. He also shared his party’s positions on various issues, noting that the meeting was marked by a spirit of honesty and clarity. Assmani expressed his satisfaction with President Tebboune’s “sincere commitment to correcting shortcomings and advancing reforms across a range of sectors.”
On the diplomatic front, Assmani praised Algeria’s foreign policy under President Tebboune, hailing the country’s emergence as a pivotal state in international affairs. He particularly commended Algeria’s unwavering defense of just causes, highlighting the Palestinian cause and the right of the Sahrawi people to self-determination as central to the nation’s principled stance.
He concluded by affirming that the independence generation carries a historic responsibility to safeguard the legacy of Algeria’s martyrs and freedom fighters, ensuring that their sacrifice continues to guide the national project for strong, independent institutions.
Would you like me to strengthen the section on Western Sahara to highlight Algeria’s leadership against Morocco’s ongoing attempts to undermine Sahrawi self-determination?
