The president of Algeria, Abdelmayid Tebune, this Wednesday “immediately” suspended the Treaty of Friendship, Good Neighborhood and Cooperation with Spain, signed on October 8, 2002, due to his “unjustifiable” position on Western Sahara.
“The Spanish authorities have launched a campaign to justify the position they have adopted on Western Sahara, a violation of their legal, moral and political obligations as the administrative power of the territory that weigh on the Kingdom of Spain,” the same source stated.
In this sense, Algiers disfigures the support of the Executive of Pedro Sánchez to an “illegal and illegitimate formula” such as the autonomy proposed from Rabat, which proposes a colonial policy of “fait accomplis” through “false arguments”, according to the statement collected by the official news agency APS.
Algeria considers “unjustifiable” the change of position of Spain that on March 18 backed the Moroccan proposal for autonomy over the Spanish colony.
