Either he could try to get around the military’s obstructionist tactics, in which case he would, at worst, run the risk of ending up like Mohamed Boudiaf, assassinated in the middle of a public meeting, or at best be rushed towards the exit, receving the same public humiliation as Liamine Zeroual.

In a signed article published in the monthly Al-Jeish (The Army) last Monday, Lieutenant-General Mohamed Lamari, Algeria's chief of staff, announced his support for Zeroual's decision, clearly enhancing the widespread view about the military's desire to remove the president.
Although Zeroual invited the political parties to nominate their candidates for the presidential elections in February, observers argue that Algeria's next president will be chosen from the military circle and will most likely be a retired general like Zeroual.
