Three Algerian military will participate in July 14 French celebrations, which will take place in the Champs-Elysées, French FM, Laurent Fabius said on Friday.
French FM Laurent Fabius will participate in the celebrations of the French Revolution.
Fabius said in an interview with RMC radio channel and BFM tv; “I do not see any justification for the campaign, which denounced the “Algerian contribution” to recall the suffering of Algerians during World War II, in which thousands of Algerians thousands died alongside the French troops.”
Fabius added in response to the campaign that was led by the French far-right movement, that; “There are good relationships between France and Algeria.Algeria was always present in the fight against terrorism.”
“Algeria is invited to attend these celebrations, which angered the French media, as several petitions were sent to the French President, Francois Hollande, to protest and to demand the abolition of these petitions, and force the French National Front to ask the French Parliament to activate this requirement, as it launched a massive campaign across social networks to expand the number of naysayers.”
