Commentators on social media platforms in Algeria interacted with a proposal submitted by former minister and diplomat Abdelaziz Rehabi regarding the new constitution, in which he saw the removal of the words "popular democracy" from the official name of the state.
Rehabi said in his contribution to the new constitution that he handed over to the presidency that "the current name of the country: the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria, is an ideological load that has become obsolete and is not valid for our time."
Opinions differed on the proposal across the communication platforms, as commentators saw the amendment in its place and called on the authority to respond to it, while others considered it a similarity to France, and said that it might strip Algeria of its identity. Likewise, opinions differed regarding the person of the former minister who made the proposal.
-The identity in which the founding fathers of the state were separated
- the designation of the Algerian Republic as a new
address for the state - a six-year tenure of the
presidency - the former presidents are lifelong members of the Constitutional Court
- a higher council of the judiciary authority, not an extension, neither of the executive branch or the union of judges. Https://t.co/5ZKMnZY7V5
