  • Algeria - Researched and Compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on Monday 24 November 2014
    Algeria - Researched and compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on Monday 24 November 2014 Information on whether the Presidential election of April 2014 was considered free and fair including if there were any voting irregularities In April 2014 a document published by The Guardian states: “Abdelaziz Bouteflika has been sworn in for a fourth term as Algeria's president after he won an election that opponents dismissed as unfair and returned to power for another five years” (The Guardian (28 April 2014) Abdelaziz Bouteflika sworn in for fourth term as Algerian president). Reuters in April 2014 points out that: “Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika, the independence veteran in power for 15 years, won re-election on Friday with more than 80 percent of a vote opponents dismissed as fraud to keep an ailing leader in power” (Reuters (18 April 2014) Algeria's ailing Bouteflika wins re-election). This document also states: “Benflis, a former FLN chief and once a Bouteflika ally, called the vote a fraud and refused to accept the results. But he gave little evidence and the government dismissed his claims” (ibid). The United Nations News Service in April 2014 notes: “Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today congratulated the people and Government of Algeria on the peaceful holding of recent presidential elections and encouraged them to work together to strengthen the democratic process in the country. Incumbent Abdelaziz Bouteflika reportedly won last week’s poll, garnering over 80 per cent of the votes cast in the North African nation. Mr. Ban, who has closely followed the elections, had deployed – at the request of the Government – a three-member panel of experts to the country to follow the electoral process and keep him abreast of the latest developments” (United Nations News Service (24 April 2014) Lauding peaceful polls, Ban encourages Algerians to work together to strengthen democracy).

Abstract: The emergence of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in the beginning of 2020 led to the deployment of enormous amounts of resources by different countries for vaccine development, and the Russian Federation was the first country in the world to approve a COVID-19 vaccine on 11 August 2020. In our research we sought to crystallize why the rollout of Sputnik V has been relatively slow considering that it was the first COVID-19 vaccine approved in the world. We looked at production capacity, at the number of vaccine doses domestically administered and internationally exported, and at vaccine hesitancy levels. By 6 May 2021, more first doses of Sputnik V had been administered Citation: Mikule, E.; Reissaar, T.; abroad than domestically, suggesting that limited production capacity was unlikely to be the main Villers, J.; Takoupo Penka, A.S.; reason behind the slow rollout. What remains unclear, however, is why Russia prioritized vaccine Temerev, A.; Rozanova, L.

  • Algeria: Current Issues
    Algeria: Current Issues Alexis Arieff Analyst in African Affairs February 10, 2011 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RS21532 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Algeria: Current Issues Summary The United States has increasingly viewed the government of Algeria, as an important partner in the fight against Al Qaeda linked groups in North Africa. The Algerian economy is largely based on hydrocarbons, and the country is a significant source of natural gas for the United States and Europe. Algeria receives little development assistance from the United States, but its security forces benefit from U.S. security assistance and participation in bilateral and regional military cooperation programs. Algeria’s relative stability, always tenuous, has most recently been challenged by a series of riots and popular demonstrations that have occurred since early January 2011. The unrest initially appeared to be motivated by discontent over food prices, but has turned more overtly political since mid-January. The example of neighboring Tunisia’s “Jasmine Revolution” and the ripple effects of ongoing unrest in Egypt may contribute to opposition activism, with further protests anticipated in mid-February. The government has reacted both by attempting to assuage the public through political and economic concessions and by using the security forces to prevent and break up demonstrations. Across the region, other authoritarian governments have adopted a similar approach with varying results. Algeria’s political system is dominated by a strong presidency. The military is the heir to Algeria’s long struggle for independence from France, and has remained the most significant political force since independence in 1962.

Compared to the Asian and African scenario it is found that, world has already experiencing a widespread diffusion of such activities for sustainable development. Whether science journalism is one of the numerous casualties in the media meltdown in the world is the most pertinent question of the last decade of 21st century. This study involved a survey of 14 most circulated English newspapers from 14 selected Asian countries with 14 different news agency from each country and their dependency were analyzed.

  • At the Edge Trends and Routes of North African Clandestine Migrants Matthew Herbert
    ISS PAPER 298 | NOVEMBER 2016 At the edge Trends and routes of North African clandestine migrants Matthew Herbert Summary In 2015, over 16 000 Algerians, Tunisians and Moroccans were caught while attempting to migrate to Europe covertly. Though North Africans are a relatively small portion of the masses of clandestine migrants, they are a critical group to understand. They are the innovators and early adopters of new methods and routes for migrant smuggling, such as their pioneering in the 1990s and 2000s of the routes across the Mediterranean that now fuel Europe’s migration crisis. Understanding how and why North Africans migrate, the routes they use, and how these are changing, offers insights into how clandestine migration methods and routes in general may shift in the coming years. In shaping better responses to actual dynamics, it is important for countries to proactively address the chronic conditions that drive forced migration before they generate social instability. THE FAMILIES OF the dead marched through Ben Guerdane, Tunisia. Parents decried the ‘desperation and indignation’ that their children faced, the hopelessness that drove them to travel clandestinely to Europe.1 Five days before, 26 young Tunisians from Ben Guerdane had slipped across the border into Libya, boarded a smuggler’s boat in Zuwara and sailed for the small Italian island of Lampedusa. Within hours, the boat had sunk and half of the passengers were dead. Migrant deaths off the Libyan coast have become all too common: 383 deaths were recorded in June 2016 alone.2 Nevertheless, the death of the young people from Ben Guerdane stood out – not for how many died, but from where they had come.
