Krim and the politicians ratified the peace over Boumedienne’s objections
Evidence
Among them there existed parallel rifts to those within the G.P.R.A., with Ben Bella and Khider tending to support Boumedienne and the hard-liners. Analysing the latest exchanges between Paris and the G.P.R.A., Ben Bella insisted on the stiffening of certain terms and the exaction of more concessions from the French. He was particularly outraged by the proposal that the naval base of Mers-el-Kébir should remain in French hands for another fifty years. — Horne, Alistair, A Savage War of Peace- Algeria 1954-1962, 1551 (
