26 Temmuz 2026Al Jazeera

Tunisians are marking five years since President Kais Saied's controversial power grab, which has led to widespread protests against his rule. The country is currently facing a severe economic crisis, compounded by a series of political arrests that have raised concerns over civil liberties.
Many citizens are expressing their dissatisfaction with the government's handling of the situation, calling for accountability and reform.
Since taking power in 2019, Kais Saied has faced increasing criticism for his autocratic approach and the deteriorating economic conditions in Tunisia. The protests reflect a broader struggle for democracy and human rights in a country that was once seen as a beacon of the Arab Spring.
The ongoing protests in Tunisia highlight the growing discontent among the populace regarding President Saied's governance. His consolidation of power has not only stifled political opposition but has also exacerbated economic challenges, leading to a volatile situation.
