Parties and official bodies alike have hailed the speech as a pivotal moment, reflecting a clear vision, unwavering strategic choices, and a renewed commitment to open and responsible communication with the Algerian people.
Political parties, including the El-Moustakbal Front, the National Liberation Front (FLN), and the National Democratic Rally (RND), emphasized that the President’s address embodies the principles of the ‘New Algeria,’ characterized by transparency and accountability. They noted the willingness to acknowledge shortcomings while reaffirming the commitment to continued reforms, strengthening state institutions, and promoting good governance. These parties believe the address demonstrates a clear political will to enshrine transparency, link authority with accountability, and ultimately serve the aspirations of citizens while reinforcing trust in state institutions.
There has also been significant support for the President’s announcement of an expanded national dialogue. Political actors view this as a strategic imperative to bolster national unity and strengthen the domestic front. They see the dialogue as fostering a responsible political partnership among various stakeholders, all working towards the nation’s best interests and safeguarding its stability and sovereignty.
