On the occasion of the 56th anniversary of the independence of the People’s Republic of Algeria, Ambassador Algeria, H. E. Abdelhamid Chebchoub, held a formal reception in his residence in memory of the day when, on July 5, 1962, the fighters of the Algerian Revolution won the victory.
The anti-colonial struggle of the Algerian people – the Algerian War of Independence – is considered one of the greatest events in the history of the 20th century. This struggle has influenced the liberation of many colonised African countries, and in essence reversed the course of Africa’s history.
