Tunisia-SANA
The Tunisian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Immigration has expressed its rejection of the statement made by the President of the Turkish regime, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, about the decision of President Kais Saied to dissolve parliament, considering that it represents an unacceptable interference in internal affairs and completely contradicts the principle of mutual respect in relations between countries.
The ministry said in a statement posted on its website that "Tunisia, to the extent that it adheres to the principles of its foreign policy and is keen to build close relations with brotherly and friendly countries based on cooperation, solidarity, consultation and mutual trust, also adheres to the independence of its national decision and strongly rejects any attempt to interfere with its sovereignty and the choices of its people or to question the its irreversible democratic path.”
The ministry affirmed that "Tunisia is a free and independent country, and the people in it are the sovereign and are the only authorized to choose the path of real freedom that preserves his security, preserves his dignity, supports his rights, enhances all his gains, and severes the relationship with the remnants of the past and with the path of formal democracy that has nothing to do with the will of Tunisians."
For his part, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Immigration Othman Al-Jarandi made a phone call to the Turkish Foreign Minister, Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu, and the regime’s ambassador to Tunisia was summoned to the ministry’s headquarters, against the background of Erdogan’s recent statement on the situation in Tunisia, where they were informed of Tunisia’s rejection of this statement.
Erdogan had claimed, in a statement two days ago, that the dissolution of parliament in Tunisia was a "distortion of democracy and a blow to the will of the Tunisian people," as he put it.
The Turkish regime's attempts to interfere in Tunisia's internal affairs are successive, which reflects the policy of this regime in support of the extremist Brotherhood's approach, which seeks to destroy countries, fragment their national unity, and impose its abnormal agendas on other countries and peoples.
