ALGIERS- The Saharawi President of the Republic, the Secretary-General of the Polisario Front, Mr. Brahim Ghali, called on, in light of the flow of Moroccan drugs in the region, which threatens peace and security, neighboring countries to coordinate efforts to address this phenomenon.
President Brahim Ghali, in his speech during his supervision of the opening session of the National Assembly, said, “at a time when we warn of the consequences of the dangerous tendency of the Moroccan occupying state to facilitate the passage of suspicious foreign agendas in our region, with the intensification of the drug flow of the Kingdom of Morocco and its support and encouragement of transcontinental organized crime gangs and terrorist groups, and even using advanced technology to target unarmed civilians in our region.”
We – added Mr. President – call on the neighboring peoples and countries to mobilize and work together, in cooperation, consultation and coordination, to confront all those threats and risks to our peoples, their security and stability.
President Brahim Ghali, renewed, in another context, his strong condemnation of the treasonous and shameful position adopted by the Spanish Prime Minister, who supports the Moroccan colonial thesis and encourages it to further expansion and aggression against the peoples and countries of the region, praising, by the way, the solidarity movement in Europe and in Spain in particular.
Earlier, the Algerian minister of the Interior, Local Authorities and National Planning, Brahim Merad, said that Algeria was facing a war of drugs that required the mobilisation of all means.
Speaking during a plenary session at the People’s National Assembly (APN) devoted to oral questions, he noted that “Algeria faces a war waged by its western neighbour,” insisting, in this sense, on the need “to face this war with all the means, through the association of all sectors and specialized bodies as well as civil society”.
