Tunisia president chooses new prime minister amid hopes of ending political crisis | |
2020-07-26 | |
[Al Ahram] Tunisian President Kais Saied on Saturday designated the interior minister as the new prime minister to succeed Elyes Fakhfakh, who resigned over allegations of a conflict of interest, the state news agency said. ... and if you can't believe the state news agency who can you believe? New premier Hichem Mechichi, an independent, now has a month to form a government capable of winning a confidence vote in parliament by a simple majority, or the president will dissolve parliament and call for another election with urgent economic decisions hanging over Tunisia.
