Tunisia's Economic and Political Challenges in 2016

11
October 2016
Francis Ghilès

This podcast is performed by Francis Ghilès. Tunisia is facing a year of great uncertainty as fighting rages in the ruling Nida Tunes Party and the En-Nahda Islamist Party finds itself in the curious position, as a junior member of the government led by habib Essid of hoping Nida Tunes holds together. Economic growth is very weak and the country's debt level is rising. The tourist sector has been badly damaged by the terrorist attacks earlier this year and phosphate production remains at a third of its pre-revolution level.

D’autre part, la présence française semble ne rien pouvoir changer à l’avancée du terrorisme dans la région, le phénomène semble même gagner du terrain devant l’imp ...
