ALGIERS- Humanitarian aid, consisting of 180 tons of various food products, will be delivered to Cuba, indicated the Algerian Red Crescent, specifying that this donation will be sent to this friendly country tomorrow Sunday.
In a press release, the Red Crescent specified that the operation “takes place in application of the instructions of the President of the Republic, Abdelmadjid Tebboune” and that “the initiative aims to provide assistance to the Cuban people who are going through difficult times”.
Thus, Algeria seeks to strengthen its ties with Cuba, which has always stood alongside the Algerian people during and after the war of liberation.
The Algerian Red Crescent (CRA) is an Algerian humanitarian volunteer organization founded in 1956. Its objectives are to help people in difficulty and empower vulnerable individuals and communities in Algeria and abroad as it strives to alleviate human suffering everywhere and at all times without partiality or discrimination. It endeavors to protect human life and health as well as ensure respect for the human being. CRA has a principal mandate of providing a wide range of relief and development services, both locally and internationally, capitalizing on its resourceful and specialist staff and volunteers. Throughout its long history, the body has been serving as an auxiliary to the State of Algeria in its humanitarian efforts, in light of its central mission of improving the lives of vulnerable people by mobilizing the power of humanity inside and outside of Algeria.
Since its foundation and in all its stages and subsequent development, the crescent has had a noble mission to serve humanity, advocate for the weak and safeguard their dignity, inspired by the ideals and the noble values of the authentic Algerian spirit as well as the innate nature of the Algerian people, who are distinguished by their generosity and loving goodness for everyone in this world, but also from their wise and far-sighted leadership which has, throughout history, been keen to support, encourage and nurture humanitarian actions, believing in its great role in promoting cooperation among nations, achieving the ultimate goal of mankind, which is cooperation and solidarity in the face of crises, challenges and blights as well as establishing international peace and security. Algeria sets the finest example of volunteer activity, and contributed to a clear picture of how humanitarian relief should be perceived and implemented.
