Agence France-Presse said on the 25th that the Algerian parliament unanimously passed a bill on the 24th to officially define France's colonial rule in Algeria as a “national crime.” Since the 1980s, the Arab side has repeatedly proposed laws to criminalize French colonization, but none of them have passed. The bill states that during the colonial period, France carried out systematic resource plunder, causing large-scale human casualties, and carrying out nuclear tests, which caused serious environmental damage, and required the French side to apologize and pay compensation for related historical responsibilities. Speaker of the National Assembly of Afghanistan Boujali stressed during the parliamentary debate that the move “does not target any nation, does not seek revenge, and does not intensify hatred.”
