President Tebboune Urges Proactive National Security Approach

President Abdelmadjid Tebboune underscored the necessity of a proactive approach to safeguard Algeria's vital interests and national security. In his message commemorating the 72nd anniversary of the glorious Liberation Revolution, President Tebboune affirmed that this strategic direction, rooted in constitutional authorization and institutional consensus, includes cooperation with a neighboring brotherly country. This approach reflects a commitment to protecting the nation's vital interests and maintaining the stability crucial for Algeria's new era of development and resource investment, guided by a sovereign political decision inspired by the spirit of November.

During his address, President Tebboune described settler colonialism, from which Algeria suffered for over 130 years, as a "shame in human history" due to its violations of ethical principles and civilizational values. He reflected on the land confiscation, historical aggression, and attempts to erase identity endured by the nation. The President highlighted the successive waves of popular resistance across the country, which culminated in the decisive historical moment of the November 1954 Revolution, a testament to a free people who paid immense sacrifices for an unwavering Algeria.

President Tebboune affirmed that Algeria, the nation of millions of martyrs, draws its strength from the cohesion of its people and the robustness of its institutions. He emphasized that commemorating this anniversary serves as an occasion to renew pride in national belonging, draw determination from the martyrs' message, and enhance awareness of the requirements for the nation's higher interests. The President also reaffirmed Algeria's steadfast commitment to the independence of its political decision, viewing it as an extension of the principles upon which the Liberation Revolution was founded.
