European Union is concerned about the deterioration of political and economic situation in Tunisia and fears a collapse of the country, the head of European diplomacy Josep Borrell declared on Monday.
“The situation in Tunisia is very dangerous,” he warned after a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels.
The European diplomat also urged the Tunisian president to sign an agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), to get the country out of the economic difficulties it is facing.
“President Kais Saied must sign with the IMF and implement the agreement, otherwise the situation will be very serious for Tunisia,” he insisted.
President Saied has granted himself all powers since July 25, 2021 and has arrested many personalities.
The main opposition parties denounce an “authoritarian drift” which is wobbling the young democracy that emerged from the first revolt of the Arab Spring in 2011.
