De Gaulle mandated Muslim majority representation in Algeria's legislature. [fact]
In his speech de Gaulle added a reminder that in the forthcoming legislative elections Algeria would vote under the same conditions as the mother country, but that “at least two-thirds of her representatives will have to be Muslim citizens”, and he concluded with a direct appeal to the F.L.N.: Why kill? We must enable people to live. Why destroy? Our duty is to build. Why hate? We must co-operate.
