Rabat – convergent reports showed Algeria calculated silence, especially after the US Africa Command (Africum) had confirmed its invitation to the Army of the Algerian regime, as an observer in the military exercises of the African lion in 2025.
Oualid Kebir, an Algerian analyst, confirmed the news today and divided an answer Imic By expanding an invitation to Algeria’s army, participating as an observer.
“Algeria was invited to observe the African lions in Tunisia. We are currently working to confirm whether they want to observe the exercise,” confirmed a manager from Afom to Kebir.
However, the Imic The official has not created any further details of the participation of Algeria in regime.
In addition to Belgium, India, Qatar, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Republic of the Congo and Equatorial Guinea, the Algerian army was initially listed among the observers.
However, a new version of the announcement that confirms the official start of the African lion exercises, which is to begin in Tunisia on April 14, shows that the information is removed.
The leading annual exercise on the continent extends to May with activities in Ghana, Senegal and Morocco.
Algeria is silent at the invitation of observer status in the military exercise, since it continues to publish its long -term public position, in the form of cooperation with Israel.
The Algerian regime has constantly criticized countries that have restored the relationships with Israel, especially in Morocco, in order to make the step against the Palestinian thing, although Rabat’s fixed attitude that his policy with Palestine still remains unchanged.
Algeria’s rhetoric is part of his maneuvers to draw international attention and use the problem to combine the Palestinian thing with the dispute with Western Sahara.
The Algerian regime has used the Polisario front for a long time to manipulate the international feeling by represents the separatist leadership as a victim to undermine the territorial of Morocco integrity.
However, several reports have confirmed the cooperation between Algeria and Israel, especially in retail.
A report by the observatory for economic complexity showed in February that Algeria was the fourth among Arab countries to export goods to Israel.
In I24 News, the data from the observatory was recorded and found that Algeria has been involved in retail with Israel since at least 2017, with total exports over 30 million US dollars.
“In 2017, Israel exported 7,000 US dollars to Algeria. In 2017, there were no main exports from Israel to Algeria. In the past 9 years, Exports of Israel to Algeria have decreased in 2008 in 2008,” said the report.
Algeria’s hypocrisy was also obvious after the President of Algeria, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, said in February that his country was willing to normalize relationships with Israel when founding a Palestinian state.
“This corresponds to the position of my predecessors, the President Chadli and Bouteflika who had no problem with Israel,” said the Algerian leader.
However, this statement strongly contradicted the relentless and well -documented conviction of the Algerian regime in Morocco and its diplomatic relationships with Israel.
After his decision to make the connections with Morocco In 2021, Algeria’s regime brought up the relationships of his southern neighbor to Tel Aviv and quoted the fears of “Zionist spies with Moroccan passports”.
