TUNIS: The European Union on Sunday said it is considering more than one billion euros in aid to boost crisis-hit Tunisia's economy and reduce the flow of irregular migrants across the Mediterranean Sea.
But Tunisian President Kais Saied again on Tuesday rejected what he termed the"diktats" of the Washington-based lender. Von der Leyen, after the four-way talks with Saied, said she hoped an EU-Tunisia agreement could be signed before the next European summit later this month.She stressed that the EU is Tunisia's top trade and investment partner and had"supported Tunisia's path to democracy" since it became the birthplace of the Arab Spring popular revolts in 2011, describing it as"a long and difficult road".
"And what about Tunisia reforms and restoring its democratic path?" he tweeted."This sounds a lot like 'money for nothing'."
