Pierre Barbie, a French expert in protection from nuclear radiation at Caen University, France, said the winds that blew recently over France from Africa carried with them nuclear radioactive sands.
He explained that it came from areas in the Algerian desert contaminated with nuclear radiation since the beginning of the sixties of the last century because of the 17 tests that Paris conducted there, during its occupation of Algeria, to build its nuclear bomb.
The French expert and consultant to the ACRO laboratories and an associate specialized in radiation monitoring in France, reached these scientifically confirmed results after analyzing a quantity of yellow-colored dust uncharacteristic in the region collected from the “Chapelle de Bois” region in the heights of the Jura at the beginning of February.
Pierre Barbie explained that if the radioactive particles in this desert sand dust, which is "Cesium-37", are harmless in France, they are dangerous to the inhabitants and the environment of the Algerian desert.
On the other hand, the head of the military engineering department at the Algerian ground forces commands, Brig. Gen. Bouzid Boufrioua, sent a strongly worded message to France, asking it to assume its responsibilities for the nuclear tests it carried out in Algeria.
Boufrioua said, in an interview with the monthly "Army" magazine: "More than 60 years have passed since the first nuclear test in Algeria. France still refuses to hand over maps that reveal the sites of nuclear waste."
The high-ranking military official stated that France had carried out 17 explosions (4 surface area Reggan and 13 underground in ( In Acre), all of which were carried out under the "pretext" of scientific research, not to mention other complementary experiments.
He explained that the surface experiments in Reggan contaminated large parts of southern Algeria and reached other African countries.
As for the underground experiments in (In Acre), many of them "got out of control, which led to the spread of the fissile products of the explosion polluting large areas."
