Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune has set a new condition for the reopening of its land borders with Morocco, closed since 1994. And it is the Minister of Communication, government spokesman, Ammar Belhimer, who has been mandated to make it public.
The accusation of « arms trafficking » against Morocco was the watchword of all Algerian ministers and generals during the black decade (1992-1999) following the abortion of the electoral process in December 1991. Despite this, it disappeared from the political landscape with the advent of Abdelaziz Bouteflika as president in 1999.
For the record, the candidate Abdelmadjid Tebboune had conditioned a possible return to the order that prevailed before 1994 to the « presentation of official apologies » by Morocco, considering, in statements to the press, that « the Algerian people were humiliated » the day Rabat closed the land borders.
