twenty years ballet into the pressure of protestors last week because of reversed his decision to run for a fifth term in office despite his promise to stand down protests have continued on tuesday thousands of students professors and health workers demonstrated in algiers to demand immediate change many criticize the government for being out of touch with every day algerians. this system is due and today the people united around a single free change the regime and we tell them go away go away you will last algeria has man skills as it is what you just. made i am here to tell the system enough it's over twenty years you ruined us you suck just dry we aren't afraid to leave us sons of traders are governing us they took the cow with its grass and its milk and everything enough let our children live let our children

live and let our children. was due to hold elections in april but on monday a president with a fleet once again insisted the vote should only be held after a new constitution is approved through a national dialogue we're here to tell us more about the movement for reform in algeria and istanbul and yes i mean i lose a researcher and writer who focuses on north africa and that i am a resident scholar at the carnegie middle east center and in algiers i'm a sociologist welcome everyone to this stream i want to start with some pictures to give our audience a sense of the scale of these protests so take a look at my screen here this posted by red and has been shared several times on twitter he writes impressive drone footage showing the extent of the largest popular protests in algeria's history against the president's plan to cling to power and you can just see the scale of it there people looking tiny like this this

is how it looks from a bird's eye view move over to this tweet here and this is been shown this and have a listen to what those protests actually sound like. and then today we got this one. a member of our community malia here says i'm marching with students in algiers today incredibly emotional and powerful students united will never be defeated and she posts a picture of herself from the tuesday march nineteenth protest you can see her there she sent that to us right before airtime got to get you have been among these protesters what is it like being out there in the streets. yes in the the in march with the student on february twenty sixth him back no one and then i marched with what was came to be called the one million march. that took place in march first

and i have to say that was very powerful very emotional as you know political scientists it was amazing to observe the protests but as a national citizen of algeria it was very emotional for me i think we are leaving a very unique sequence of events that we haven't seen in since the ninety's you know when my mother used to drug me at protests saying no to terrorism so it was you know the scale of the protests were amazing the behavior and the peaceful nature of these protests also is something that really was impressive the organization as well you know each time for instance we would reach a polish very protester would you know ways their arms and h. and start chanting still me us in media which means peaceful peaceful they also

chanted. sharp color which means military and police are brothers and it was very you know emotional people were giving us food they were giving us bottles of water i think this is the first time in a while that we haven't seen algerian that you need ok. you tweeted out nineteenth of march and you made a connecting a connection between the sixty's and what's happening today have a look here yes minister sixty two she talks about ninety from us twenty nine team of protesters students are doctors and other sectors and cities in algeria going out how would you describe what is happening in algeria right now. so based off the comparison of particular significant dates that we're seeing today

of the nineteenth of march where you're seeing was a recommendation of the national history of algeria that for many yes has been manipulated by the ruling elites of generals who have used best status to legitimize their power hold and you're having this young generation now who are refused to see the governments of these world generals of based on the historic. what they've gained in the history of the country and read what the damage they've done in the waltz in governance and you're seeing seen a seventy percent of the population under the age of thirty that fed up frustrated having a president that is clearly unable to who has been unable to rule the size of the country since suffering a stroke in two thousand and thirteen who has not addressed the country in the last six years and there are those just a general consensus amongst the unions amongst various sectors in society in the

public is enough. enough is enough that's represented here i want to show a series of tweets. put online by see that this headline this is and also to read that the that he shares some of the pictures that people are sharing online this algeria deep cleaning is referring to rampant corruption and graf symbolized by algeria's ruling clan scroll down a little bit more and these are sold visual south africa got madiba we got mostly a bob or a disaster and that is referring to the president they are sharing a cartoon and this last one i want to show. he writes this is an office term not an underwear brief for you to stretch and it's quoting a picture of someone who was there referring to bits of cancelling the elections and stretching his fourth term so clearly some creativity out in these protests but i mean how significant do you see these protests. i think the our

manager and i think that all it's a little larry we didn't end. to one of the regime and towards the. ruling elite who have been hijacking the state and its resources since nine hundred sixty two it's really a little saying well you know we are going to do our own thing we don't want to negotiate with you no thank you we don't want you have anything to do with you and we do not know your. and what are the meeting but the fact that arjun are balanced that we can't agree with each other that are to destroy then your largest if you were you know that in the ninety's in our carry out there has been a struggle to have an approach first in ninety ninety two when and accurately to react years and it's party and it has been then a struggle between islamic groups and the army and security forces so people are really trying to get independence from all dad all that will argue that it's bad

losing its needs its audacity its courts to use demands of shared just super. power and that's how we should dance this catalans and this week you were and this joy to be together with not having their his an interfering in our genes for to explore our much the thirteenth reuters took this picture on my laptop of a student protest and she says hey you wanted five that's a fifth term for the president here are five and he lists the reasons why people are on the streets he doesn't want to tell me extension they were fooling people or no more corrupt government and i'm all manipulation no to foreign intervention dahlia does that succinctly sum up why it is that you keep going back to algeria to protest is there a vision from the protesters about exactly why they're protesting what they want.

yes indeed actually when the protestant the demand was very clear and focused and it was one demand it was no two the fifth term of our business is good for what has been in power for twenty years and fortunately the incapacity of the region to respond and to answer quickly to the demand made the protest go bigger and the demand extend so we went from no to the fifty to no to the entire region no to the entire system and to a slogan such as a shabby redo is cut them a dam which means the people want the region to fall so this is the incapacity of the region to answer and to dispense what it used to do you know during the ninety's but also during the arab spring that didn't happen in fact in algeria why because we were in front of the region who had a cup a city to answer quickly what the regime used to do is to dispense political and

economic reforms or in terms you know in forms of packages in two thousand and twelve for instance in answer to the arab spring by dispensing political reforms that by allowing for instance twenty one in new a political parties to register and it has also a very important economic resources so it was capable to buy social peace today the region doesn't have the mean to buy social peace any more so on the economic front it is incapable of buying social peace and on the political front to the region seems adamant about keeping beautifully but again the question is why they are so adamant this is almost a ridiculous situation i would say iran is ridiculous why why why because this has to be. found sorry within the nature of the region the algerian region is a very complex and rich. it is you know composed by different strategies and

circles of power and decision circles you know you have the f.l.n. apache you have the bureaucracy you have the military that are very powerful in the mid it to me are not governing but they are ruling and all and of course you have the business tycoons and all of these different circles and have you know are cemented the by deep economic and political interests so moving all this with take a lot of time and a lot of lot of efforts so this is why do we g.m. is so deeply rooted that it is very hard to move it then again judeans are realistic about what they can change and what they cannot change and what one think they change already is that they destroyed the wool of fear that has been there since the end of the war in one nine hundred ninety nine and i heard what you were

saying about the circles that are propping up the system of government there and i here on twitter says something similar the shadow government should reveal themselves to the algerian people referring in a way to those circles but at the head of that is this person and it's written in this week here for heaven sake eighty two years old and you can't walk why not retire and rest what is it that still makes you desire to be president go home to your family and rest of course they are referring to are the levees but the flick of the president just to mean a talk to us about this sentiment are you hearing this rather people not understanding why this president still wants to be at the helm. well all of the secrecy that's surrounding at the moment means that for many algerians doubts whether. what the status exactly of his health is and there is even more sinister rumors that he may not even be alive. there's also a contradiction in the how the same as the he's released so for example in the

third of march he's come the decision was submitted to the constitutional council via his campaign manager but a few. weeks later his statements on the eleventh of march. the chains that he had no intention of running for a fifth mandates and that his age and health were factors that particular decision which obviously contradicts contradicts the fact that a medical certificate was produced in order for him to to be. to file his candidacy and to. to continue with a fifth term so we're seeing these questions of who exactly are releasing these statements who are pulling the strings behind the current decisions and for how long we will see him ahead the current governments are overlooking as a caretaker president the current transition democratic transition and calls for

national dialogue and conference within the next year ladies i want to show our audience what it may need to as some. magic show is what it actually means to have a president who is let's say incapacitated or are not seen speaking in public for at least six years so at official events like this one you can see it on my laptop here his portrait presides over official a fence and a figure few more of these pictures and sometimes it's a very indifferent age is present beautifully and you see him here. this is bizarre and going back to the fish off vent where the president is on an easel and then finally at a rally and leading a parade right there the front looking somewhat younger this is very strange a male. who is actually running. jiri

a right now obviously it can't be a poor trait that is brought out during these official events so who is running out gerri. well you know for sure elg the physical absence of the fear had added she just loves him being an elite it's the wonder why it's only algerians where singing we all of that the whole weird is is making air because this is trading on lee the president there's a popular song in our general has been. getting a quote out of that say we don't have a president we are we have a picture and that's in this feeling call small's deep inside and very late into the object but i believe that now it's really young. the international coverage has been focusing a lot on good fear perhaps not but it can be the young people you are asking me who inflating algy happy people who are also bad on every object people look at and of

course there is a prison camp now as we have been growing and growing and growing these past years including these businessmen that outlives was munching but also a whole car to see and also see. a rich people who thought they may benefit from their their allergens to the fear card to get a house or to get a job at salon but you most importantly you have the army and that's the biggest kaberle in argentina actually and the next inside that things actually ending is that the tab war army is slowly fading away until recently people were only talking about that fear can delusion but not about yamit where already. it has been mentioned also and jewish and sheriff well tell us all the people and the army are brothers but the thing is that we have to differentiate between the characters military carried men and the whole and the duty to be absent

of people who are part of the men of the need to be in algerian family had. i mean it's quite common that it was the you have to have religious and so on and these people started to i'm tired of the demonstration yes she said he started to say well we have. the regime as well. i mean that the most traditional the police have also sex homes the most you know this is a you shared technology actually after i was seeing so what did an audience. were taking you live now to create city where the u.s. secretary of state has arrived for his first stop on a middle east trip. of call with the model where it's an ideology twenty seven eighteen and twenty thirty this strategic dialogue between the united states and
