The US Secretary of State expressed concern about the political crisis in Tunisia. Earlier, Tunisian President Kais Saied suspended the parliament and disbanded the government. The country’s major political parties called this a “coup”.
Anthony Brinken said on Thursday that he was worried that Tunisia might deviate from its democratic path and urged action, including the restoration of parliament, after talking with Said on Monday.
The top US envoy stated that Said gave a “lengthy explanation” of why he took unprecedented steps, adding that the President of Tunisia had promised him that he would be committed to democracy.
“The intention he expressed to me is to return Tunisia to the path of democracy and act in a constitutional manner,” Brinken told Al Jazeera during his visit to Kuwait.
