Political leaders reluctant to sign a petition against the French colonialism

The names of influential political figures from the two major Algerian parties, National Liberation Front (FLN) and National Democratic Rally (RND)were absent from the list forwarded by a group of parliamentarians to the parliament in a move to discuss a proposal aiming at incriminating the French colonialism in Algeria.The petition that has been forwarded to Algerian Parliament alongside the bill reveals the absence of outstanding figures supposed to be the project’s forerunners on account of their positions within the political institution, including the chairman of the FLN parliamentary group Al Ayachi Daadouaa.
