The Ministry of Youth has issued a strong denial regarding a statement attributed to Minister Mustapha Hidaoui. The alleged statement claimed that European nations were consulting Algeria on strategies to address youth-related challenges. The ministry asserted that Minister Hidaoui never made any such remarks.
In a statement released Saturday evening, the ministry addressed reports circulating in some media outlets, which quoted a foreign website. According to these reports, Minister Hidaoui suggested that Europe was seeking Algeria’s advice and solutions to alleviate social problems affecting its youth. The Ministry of Youth categorically refuted these claims.
“We emphatically deny that Minister Hidaoui made any such statement,” the ministry’s statement declared. “Neither in an official meeting nor in any media interaction did the Minister make the comments attributed to him. The published reports are completely baseless and devoid of truth.”
The ministry urged media outlets and the public to exercise caution and verify information before disseminating it. It emphasized the importance of relying solely on official ministry channels for accurate and authorized news and statements. The ministry reiterated its commitment to transparency and providing timely information through its official platforms.
The incident highlights the need for responsible journalism and the potential consequences of spreading unverified information. DZWatch remains dedicated to providing accurate and reliable news to its readers.
