The drawing ceremony of the 2025 African Cup in Morocco experienced a widespread controversy on the Algerian social media platforms, after the absence of any official representation of Algeria.
Unlike the rest of the African countries, whose representatives attended the chiefs of football federations or international players, the Algerian regime has chosen to send the Swiss coach, Vladimir Petkovic, to represent the Algerian people in this major event.
The presence of the Swiss coach causes reactions of anger
In an incomprehensible stage, the Algerian regime decided to send the Swiss coach, Vladimir Petkovic, to represent the country of Algeria during the ceremony.
This step has led to general dissatisfaction among the disciples who saw that the sending of a foreign person to represent an elected team represents an entire people is an insult to the Algerians and reflects the policy of the military regime in power in the country.
Some have considered that this decision highlights the isolation felt by the Algerian regime in the field of international sports.
Strong criticisms of the Algerian regime
Many supporters have criticized the decision in an stingy decision, stressing that what happened is another example of “the stupidity of the military regime in power in Algeria”.
It was obvious that Algeria quickly headed for the abyss following the policies of the military regime in power. This policy, which many observers see beyond the era, ensure that Algeria retires to sporting and diplomatic levels.
While many other African countries are progressing in various fields, Algeria still lives under calcified policies that do not comply with the requirements of the modern era.
