EU calls for resumption of parliamentary activity

Agencies
BRUSSELS: The European Union on Tuesday called for the restoration of democratic institutions, including parliamentary activity and the respect of human rights in Tunisia.
Tunisian President Kais Saied on July 25 ousted the government of Prime Minister Hichem Mechichi, froze parliament and assumed the executive authority.
EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell issued a statement on behalf of the bloc, asserting that the EU is closely monitoring recent developments in Tunisia.
Borrell stressed the importance of “respecting the democratic roots of the country, respect for the rule of law, the Constitution, and the legislative framework,” and “listening to the will and aspirations of the Tunisian people.”
“We, therefore, call for the restoration of institutional stability as soon as possible, and in particular for the resumption of parliamentary activity, the respect for fundamental rights and the abstention from all forms of violence,” he said. “It is a priority to preserve the country’s democracy and stability.”
