Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune said on Saturday that the May 8, 1945 massacres committed by the French colonial rule bear witness to the greatness of Algeria's struggle, and its terrible atrocities will remain ingrained in Algerian collective memory.

Algerian official sources report that close to 45,000 protestors, who were demonstrating for the independence of their country after the Allies were victorious in the Second World War, were killed by French colonial troops.

He further added that Algeria's history is a source of its pride and glory, one that roots itself deeper whenever those who have not foregone their extremism and their colonialist tendency continue to distort history. 

The Algerian President explained that this is why Algeria gives its history so much importance, adding that the country wants balanced relations with its regional and international partners, to raise one's voice for truth and just causes, which makes Algeria a source of stability in the region.
