While accusing the Kingdom of spreading rumors about his state of health, the Algerian president assured Monday that «97% of fake news» on his country would be coming from Morocco, in collaboration with Israel. Tebboune also promised that he «will not abandon the question of Western Sahara».
The year 2020 will have witnessed the return of venomous relations between Morocco and Algeria after a lull in 2019. Back on the key moments.
Assuring that his country has no problem with Morocco, the Algerian president reiterated his country's position on the Western Sahara issue. He also expressed his country's determination to «impose itself» as a mediator for a solution to the Libyan crisis, but also for the Malian issue.
