Documents Reveal Suspicious Role by Qatar in Algerian Protests

New documents seen by the Emirati "Al Ain News" further revealed the policy of Qatar which is full of hostility and conspiracy against Algeria by funding suspicious organizations and directing hostile platforms.

During the months of the political crisis that the country went through last year, the Algerian army and security services managed to thwart foreign plans, including a Qatari one, that tried to penetrate the movement and get to fund some of it.

A leaked document from the "Al-Karamah Organization" in Qatar revealed that it includes in its membership the separatist Mac movement, which calls for the separation of the tribes region from Algeria (which includes 3 provinces), which are the governorates whose residents do not recognize the movement, and consider them an Intelligence dictated groups.

The document addressed to the members of the organization exposed the role of the Qatari regime in setting the agenda of its organization through its ambassador to London Yusuf bin Ali.

Al-Ain quoted informed Algerian sources that a meeting at the Qatari embassy in London led to the renewal of the contract of the Qatari "Al-Karama Organization" with the Algerian movement, "for a period of 10 years", and with a financial amount of "$ 3.5 million" in 4 installments over ten years."

On the other hand, informed Algerian sources revealed to Al-Ain News about another side of the Qatari plan against Algeria, which is linked to the creation and support of online platforms and media partners in France to "mislead public opinion and attack the army."

The sources explained that the "additional" scheme came after the visit of the ruler of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad, to France in September 2019 and his agreement with French circles known for its hostility to Algeria to support media companies and the establishment of a number of electronic platforms for which the value of "$ 19 million" was allocated.

Tamim agreed with those French authorities that a French company known as "OVH" would create a "host for companies of the Ministry of Communication in Qatar" located in France "to build those platforms and websites in Arabic language and with Arabic sorbets to internationalize them globally and internationally."

The tasks of those online platforms to target Algeria during the political crisis were defined in "publishing videos and pictures dating back to the beginnings of the popular movement in Algeria in February and March", after the momentum of popular demonstrations in Algeria receded, as it did with other Arab countries during what was known as the "Arab Spring".
