- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment his Department has made of the implications for its policies of Tunisian President Saied’s (a) dismissal of the prime minister and (b) freezing of parliamentary activity.
- Answer
-
The UK is closely monitoring the situation in Tunisia.

We call on all parties to uphold Tunisia's reputation as a tolerant and open society and to protect the democratic gains of the 2011 revolution.
