Wouldn't it be better to share news of investments and improvements than to listen to what CIA says about Algeria/Africa ?

Wouldn't it be better to share news of investments and improvements than to listen to what CIA says about Algeria/Africa ?

This report is completely linked to the human development indicators, crime rate, strength of the health care system and level of nutrition in the two countries, which are also indicators linked to the economic status of the two countries....These indicators are always in favor of Algeria, notably the economic situation of the two countries. And as long as the two countries are in eternal conflict, it is better to highlight all the strengths and weaknesses that distinguish them.

I disagree with that POV. Everyone thought Assad wouldn't fall like that in december, but that's because everything was overestimating him.

Now everyone says Türkiye is the country that will determine the future of Syria, but I disagree, unless you keep improving, and moving and making sure you get better cards in your hands every day, your winning hand will become hollow and you'll become a laughing stock to the world.

You seem satisfied with being better than Morocco according to CIA statistics, I think that's wrong way to look at things because it means you become complacant.

We are better than Morocco. These are facts and numbers, not a CIA report....and Algeria is not Syria to be compared to it, and not even the nature of the conflict in the Middle East is similar to the nature of the Algerian-Moroccan conflict.
