Kosovo Statement on the Pardon Issued by the President of the Republic – November 1, 2024
Statement in Arabic
Express Confederation of Productive Forces Trade Unions (COSEFOB) expresses its deep gratitude to the President of the Republic, Mr. Abdelmadjid Tebboune, for his decision to grant amnesty to freedom of expression defenders in Algeria. This announcement is an important step toward national reconciliation and a sign of hope for the many families and individuals who have suffered the consequences of political repression.
However, we would like to emphasize that this amnesty must include all prisoners, without exception. We call for these measures to include those for whom complaints have not been filed before international bodies or who have not been the subject of reports by UN special rapporteurs, as well as all those who have, in one way or another, expressed an opinion, idea, or position on political, social, or societal issues. It is essential that all voices be heard and that all persons detained in unjust conditions benefit from this amnesty.
We sincerely hope that these releases will be extended to include other prisoners, both men and women, and that they will be accompanied by rehabilitation measures for those whose lives have been severely affected by their years of detention. Freedom of expression advocates are not criminals; they are citizens exercising their fundamental right to freedom of expression.
We also call for an end to measures aimed at restricting the activities of unions, political parties, and individuals. Everyone must have the opportunity to express their opinions, assemble, and fully participate in the country's democratic life. Defending trade union freedoms is essential to building a more just and harmonious society.
We also appeal to the prisoners and families of the remaining prisoners: Do not hesitate to join organizations that can defend your rights before international bodies. In this regard, we reiterate that the doors of KOSEFOP are open to all who wish to fight for individual and collective freedoms. Together, we can create a pressure force for justice and dignity.
We thank the President again for his initiative, which reflects a desire to engage in a genuine national dialogue that supports and strengthens the internal front and enhances Algeria's strength in confronting the challenges surrounding it in light of the current, very complex international circumstances. Together, we will work for an Algeria that reflects our shared hopes and dreams, faithful to the oath of November 1, 1954.

Communiqué of the Confederation Syndicate of Forces Productives (COSYFOP)
Algiers, November 1, 2024
The Confederation Syndicale of Forces Productives (COSYFOP) expresses its gratitude to the President of the Republic, Monsieur Abdelmadjid Tebboune, for his decision to record a safe operation in Algeria. This annunciation is a sign of the national reconciliation and a sign intended for family members and individuals who are close to political consequences.
Please let us know that this place does not include all the details, without exception. We call upon those who are concerned about non-commercial issues that cause the project to appear in recent international instances or rapports from specific rapports from ONU, but also all of these things that work early or later, on the basis of one opinion, one Idée or a position on political, social or social questions. It is imperatif that all the voices are close to you and that all the people are incarcerated in the circumstances that are just beneficient in this situation.
Our people live that this liberation will be sent to prisoner families, among the women, and they will take care of rehabilitation measures for those who don't have a grave impact on their memory. There are no differences in the criminals; These are the people who exercise their basic knowledge in the freedom of expression.
We also apply to the final measures available for the purpose of restoring the activity of syndicates, political parties and individuals. You may want to use the express box to open and share the payment method. The defense of syndicated libertés is essential for the construction of a more just and harmonious society.
We also have to address a phone call and family members who have entered the prison: We do not want to join other organizations that can protect your children from international instances. The COSYFOP rests at your disposal and our ports are available to all of us and there are many cells for the freedoms of individuals and collectives. Ensemble, we have many people create a fortified movement in the interests of justice and dignification.
We are keen on enforcing the President for his initiative, which reflects a strong national dialogue, supporting and reforging the internal front to increase the force of Algeria in the face of the enemy in the international, complex context. Ensemble, we want to hear from Algeria that responds to our people and our common friends, dated on November 1, 1954.
