The schemes and conspiracies hatched against Algeria aren’t the figment of imagination as claim some skeptics, but an obvious reality that the Army, backed in this mission by the valiant Algerian people, will be able to foil, affirmed Tuesday, in Algiers Lieutenant General Saïd Chanegriha, the chief of Staff of the People’s National Army, during the installation ceremony of the new Commander of the National Gendarmerie, the Ministry of National Defense said in a statement.

“I would like to underline, on this occasion, that the schemes and conspiracies hatched against Algeria, as well as the plots targeting its people, of which we have always warned, are not the figment of imagination as claim some skeptics, but an obvious reality, the hidden side of which is known by everyone,” said Lieutenant General Chanegriha in a speech he made in a meeting with the officers and staff of the National Gendarmerie.

He pointed out that “the intense and fierce campaign targeting our country and its Army, through some foreign media outlets and social networks, is only the emerged side of this treacherous war against Algeria, by way of revenge for its unchanging positions towards the just causes, its commitment to preserving its national sovereignty, and its decisions free from any form of submission or subjection,” underlining that “once again, the People’s National Army will be able to face all those who await our country to execute their malicious plans, backed in this noble mission by the valiant Algerian people.”

Lieutenant General Said Chanegriha broached also the Algeria people’s admirable expressions of solidarity in the last few days, after the worrying spread of the Covid-19 pandemic, through their mobilization alongside the State’s institutions, in a “collective fervour to minimize the effects of this health situation, by helping patients and professionals of the public health.”
