Premier Benyoussef Benkhedda, Vice Premier Belkacem Krim, and the rest of the F.L.N. cabinet met in Morocco, then issued an official communiqué bluntly declaring war on the S.A.O. and warning that S.A.O. activities could "jeopardize" the interests of the European minority in Algeria...

...F.L.N.'s chief negotiator, stocky ex-Guerrilla Belkacem Krim, was clearly taken aback. "We do not agree at all. Not at all. This is a unilateral move," he spluttered. Krim proposed that "working sessions" continue the following day. But De Gaulle was adamant; he plainly wanted to let the Algerians stew for awhile.
