Djelloul Chetouane to Afrika News: the Bloc is a civil space that respects freedom of choice

In a spirit of openness towards public opinion and of fostering responsible national debate, the press interview given by the President of the Hisn Al-Mateen Bloc, Mr Djelloul Chetouane, to the newspaper Afrika News confirms the Bloc's commitment to building a national civil space that respects freedom of choice and encourages positive participation in national elections.

The interview carried clear messages affirming that the Hisn Al-Mateen Bloc:

• believes that serving the nation means participation and responsibility;
• supports stability, national unity and a culture of dialogue;
• opens the way for skilled professionals, young people and women to help build a better future;
• rejects the rhetoric of exclusion and suspicion, and calls for fair competition in the public interest.

This media appearance also reflects the Bloc's concern to convey citizens' concerns responsibly and to build a balanced civil space that strengthens trust and serious national action.

The coming period requires everyone to join forces, to let the voice of wisdom prevail and to work in a patriotic spirit free of narrow divisions, which is what the Hisn Al-Mateen Bloc seeks through its positions and initiatives.
