In line with its noble mission to combat all forms of corruption and crime, as well as to uphold the fundamental principles of international law, the Global Security Organization Against Corruption and Crime (OMSAC) reiterates that national sovereignty is an inalienable right, recognized by the United Nations Charter and the fundamental principles of international law. Every state has the absolute right to protect its territorial integrity, population, and strategic interests from any form of threat or external interference.


This Right Is Not an Exclusive Privilege of Europe

However, it is evident that the international community, particularly the major Western powers, applies a policy of "double standards." While border protection and threat prevention are deemed legitimate for some countries, others—especially in Africa and the Middle East—are expected to exercise restraint or even remain passive in the face of provocations.


Europe and Its Mobilization Against Threats

The latest example of this is the military mobilization of 30 countries in Paris to prepare for the protection of European borders and support Ukraine. When a European country perceives a threat at its borders, the reaction is immediate: a military coalition is formed, diplomatic pressure is applied, and deterrence strategies are implemented.

However, when Algeria expresses concerns over military maneuvers conducted near its borders by foreign powers or regional neighbors, any initiative aimed at asserting its right to security is often labeled as "escalation of tensions" or "aggressive behavior." This disparity in handling security concerns highlights a blatant injustice.


Algeria’s Legitimate Right to Preserve Its Sovereignty

According to Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, every state has the right to take diplomatic, strategic, and military measures to ensure its national security.

Therefore, in response to planned military maneuvers near its borders, Algeria has the right to:

  • Express its concerns diplomatically and refer the matter to international bodies.

  • Strengthen its military presence at its borders as a preventive and deterrent measure.

  • Demand transparency and engage in an open dialogue with the concerned countries to avoid unnecessary escalation.

  • Cooperate with its strategic allies to maintain regional stability and preserve peace.


A Call for Responsibility and Mutual Respect

Far from seeking any military escalation or provocation, Algeria adopts a responsible stance of vigilance and calls on regional and international actors to respect the sovereignty of states and prioritize cooperation over confrontation.

Peace in North Africa and the Mediterranean region can only be ensured through sincere dialogue, the absence of provocations, and mutual recognition of each state's right to protect its territory and population.


Conclusion

As a regional power, Algeria has the full right to exercise its sovereignty, just like any other country concerned with its security. In the face of threats or provocations, its response should not be perceived as an escalation but rather as an assertion of its national sovereignty and its right to maintain peace.


If Europe can mobilize its forces to protect its borders, Algeria must also be able to claim this fundamental right, without fear of external pressures or biased interpretations of its defensive stance.
