My life has been a bit special, this is true. I participated in the liberation of my country. I was one of the organisers of its struggle for liberation. I likewise actively participated in all the struggles for liberation.

When I was engaged in the struggle for my country, I was very young. My horizons were open.

Yes, I am Algerian of Moroccan origin through my parents, but all my life is Algeria. I was born there.

Yes, my life is a life of combat; I can say that this has never stopped for a single instant. It is a combat that started for me at the age of 16. I'm 90 years old now, and my motivation hasn't changed; it's the same fervour that drives me.

It's with them that we have constituted a liberation front and brought our logistic support to armies to help their countries come out of colonialism and establish a national internal regime.

It is obvious that taking the country from a state of war to being a lawful state won't be easy.
