TUNIS, Tunisia — Tunisia’s efforts to obtain a loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to deal with its deteriorating economic crisis may be hindered by the growing international criticism against President Kais Saied’s recent measures, which are seen as a way to cement his one-man rule.
In remarks to the House Appropriations Committee on April 28, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that Tunisia needs to address concerns about its democracy if it wants to garner much-needed international economic support.
