Tunisian President's Suspension of Parliament Gets Mixed Reaction Voice of America 28 Jul 2021, 07:35 GMT+10 CAIRO - Tunisia's Islamist al Nahda Party is calling President Kais Saied's suspension of parliament a "coup" and urging a broad "dialogue," while other political parties and leaders appear divided on his decision. A number of trade syndicates, including the Labor Federation, say they support the move so long as it does not last more than a month. Tunisian state TV reported that the situation inside the country was calm Tuesday following Saied's decision Sunday to suspend parliament. It said Tunisians were largely obeying a curfew that forbids more than three people from gathering in the streets during the night.
