Mister President, Honourable attendance,
For many decades, the entire world has spoken about human rights and the
international charter of human rights. But unfortunately, today, the rights of
the native people and of the minorities have never been so trampled on,
violated and ridiculed by certain UN member states.
The Kabyle people, a group to which I belong, is suffering a second
colonisation since 1962 and, more dangerously, since August 2019, with the
holding of the
“Zero Kabyle” congress in Mostaganem which targets their genocide and
extermination.
Algeria is reoffending and acting with full impunity despite the many calls to
order and the avalanche of many reports from the international community
which are laden with accusations and which condemn the serious breaches
regarding:
- Its serious violations of human rights against Kabylia and the Kabyle
people,
- Its devious management of Covid 19 with a report of thousands of deaths
- The criminal activation of forest fires in Kabylia causing hundreds of
people to die by burning alive,
- The torture, rapes, arrests and mass imprisonments of more than 500
activists who are fighting for the Kabyle cause and the selfdetermination of Kabylia
- The assassination of the young Algerian Djamel Bensmail due to
later blaming him for the movement for Kabylia’s selfdetermination
- The heavy punishment sentences of dozens of political activists and
death penalties of more than 50 political activists fighting for the
Kabyle cause, on the basis of empty or fabricated records.
- Instrumentalisation of justice and intervention in the Algerian criminal
code to criminalise the political activism of the Kabyle people, and
classification of any political act not going in the Algerian regime’s
desired direction as terrorism
Algeria signs all treaties which are in favour of human rights in order to create a
good image for the international community. However, in practice, at home, it
does not apply or respect any treaty and, to make matters even worse, it
criminalises any militant act in defence of human rights. It even sentences
anyone who disobeys to death.
