Their discussions centered on national memory and the sacrifices made by Algerians to regain national sovereignty.
The event encapsulated the spirit of resilience and gratitude, reminding attendees and the broader Algerian population of their rich history and the sacrifices made for freedom. As Algeria progresses, the values of determination and perseverance remain integral to the nation’s identity and aspirations for a prosperous future.
