Legislation
One of the things Bouteflika is noted for is having contributed to the normalizing the ties between the Algerian military and the president. He made some attempts to improve foreign relations, especially with Algeria's neighbors. He is thought by Algerians to have brought an end to the 10 year civil war. After his second election he declared that he was going to amend the Constitution, reorganize the different parties into two poles. He also announce that the private press was going to come under his control.Bouteflika began his restoration plans in 2005. In September of that year, he adopted measures that would provide reparations for families who had members of their families still missing, as well as amnesty for members of the armed services who were not guilty of performing atrocities. He also was responsible for creating a program that would give aid to widows and orphans of soldiers. He modified the Constitution on November 12, 2008, to remove the restriction on serving two consecutive presidential terms. Not long after the change of the Constitution, President Bouteflika announced that he would be running for his third consecutive presidential term.http://www.medea.be/index.html?page=2&lang=en&doc=377
