According to RCD head, election law revision motives appear in the light of political data related to the forthcoming presidential elections scheduled for 2009, for those who manage to snatch the majority of representation at the municipal level are to win the presidential election. Mr. Sadi also tackled Algerian society changes while parties in power remain far from that mutation, thus, it is indispensable to open a political debate between the two parties. On another side RCD head recognized that the party has not the right to submit an election law proposal for it is represented at the People’s National Assembly by 19 MPs, but this will not impede him from opening a debate on the behalf of the public opinion. As for his participation in the last legislative elections, after he declared his boycott in 2002, Mr. Sadi made clear that he has not obtained any guarantee from authorities but 2002 political context is no more 2007 one. He further mentioned that he couldn’t then organize an election campaign for people who were burying their sons and talk for the future. He stressed that his party would do the same things if that black spring events happened elsewhere in the country. In practical terms, Mr. Sadi suggests a counter-corruption chart including exceptional measures for wages raise to employees in sensitive positions such as finance sector, police and justice. At the international level, Fatour Essabah guest doesn’t expect short term deep mutations in Algerian-French relations « because the political class in France undergoes deep rooted and historical changes, while Algeria political system is in a pure stagnation, and in order to introduce a real change the renewal should cover the two parties ». Moreover, Mr. Sadi does not understand why the Algerian and Moroccan governments cannot put aside Western Sahara problem and open a debate over common concerns such as security threats. | ||||||||||||||||||
