The scandals surrounding the Algerian regime continue to pile up, gradually turning the country into a stage for irresponsible and provocative international policies. The latest involves Algeria hosting representatives of the Kurdish Rojava movement in the Tindouf camps, signaling explicit support for secession in Syria and Turkey. This move highlights a dangerous strategy aimed at fostering division and destabilizing the region, even if it means provoking direct confrontation with powers like Turkey.
Algeria, a Sponsor of Terrorism and Division
Reports from Turkish and international media have revealed that Kurdish delegations linked to Rojava, supported by the PKK, were welcomed by Algerian authorities. This maneuver demonstrates the regime’s willingness to exploit separatist movements to assert geopolitical influence, despite its isolation on the international stage.
Meanwhile, Algerian citizens endure severe economic and social crises while the regime redirects national resources toward controversial foreign projects. This strategy also risks opening a new conflict with Turkey, which considers the PKK a terrorist organization.
An Unconvincing Denial
In response to criticism, the Algerian embassy in Ankara released a statement denying involvement in Turkish affairs. However, videos shared by Rojava appear to confirm implicit Algerian support, fueling suspicions of irresponsible interference.
A Dangerous Diplomacy
Algeria’s support for the Rojava movement risks worsening regional tensions and further damaging its international credibility.
