Tunisia’s trade union announces public sector strike from June 16 | Africanews
The powerful Tunisian trade union centre UGTT on Tuesday announced a nationwide public sector strike on June 16 to protest against soaring inflation and prevent the privatisation of major state-owned companies.
www.africanews.com
The government has submitted a reform plan to the IMF that includes
- a freeze on the civil service wage bill,
- a gradual reduction of some state subsidies
- restructuring of state-owned enterprises.
However, the IMF wants these promises to be supported by the social partners, including the UGTT, to ensure their implementation. On Monday, the rating agency Fitch deplored that tensions between the government and the UGTT were holding up negotiations with the IMF, saying it was "very difficult" to "adopt political and economic reforms without the support of the UGTT". Last week, the UGTT announced its refusal to participate in a "national dialogue" process launched by Mr. Saied, which excludes political parties.
FMI sta agli USA come Al Saied sta a Putin... è tutta una questione di business

Il sindacato si sta opponendo a tutto. Vogliono i soldi dell’fmi senza alcun sacrificio il che è impossibile visto il peso del settore pubblico. Così fanno saltare la baracca… a me sembra una posizione politica x far saltare Saied perché altrimenti non avrebbe senso questo atteggiamentoTunisia’s trade union announces public sector strike from June 16 | Africanews

Quanto a numeri l'Egitto e' messo peggio. Il problema per l'egitto e', che vivendo esclusivamente o quasi di finanziamenti esterni, se mai dovesse solo che ristrutturare il debito fine.
Al contrario ha ancora margine per tirarsi su dando tutto lo spazio possibile ai privati togliendolo definitivamente dalle mani dei militari.

Tunisian opposition vows to fight president's move to replace constitution
04/06/2022 16:10 - RSF
By Tarek Amara
TUNIS, June 4 (Reuters) - Dozens of opposition supporters took to the streets of Tunisia's capital on Saturday to protest against the start of talks over a new constitution, which they see as an attempt by President Kais Saied to consolidate a grab for power.
Saied last year dismissed parliament and began ruling by decree in a move his opponents described as a coup, but he said was necessary to save Tunisia after a "decade of ruin".
The president, who has also replaced the judicial supreme council and the electoral commission, has pledged to hold a referendum on July 25 to vote on a new constitution, and on Saturday talks over drawing this up started in Carthage.
However, Saied has excluded all the main political parties, including the Islamist Ennahda and the Free Destourian Party - the largest two in the country. The powerful UGTT Union has refused to participate in the talks.
Dozens of supporters of the Ettakatol, Attayar, Workers and Republican parties took to the streets of Tunis on Saturday, saying the talks in Carthage were illegitimate.
The police prevented them, including some party leaders, from reaching the headquarters of the electoral commission.
"Tunisia has entered the path of falsifying the will of the voters and an atmosphere in which freedoms are not available," Republican Party leader Issam Chebbi told reporters.
The Ennahda and Free Destourian parties, a two rival parties said this week they would also step up protests, while the UGTT has called for a national strike on June 16 after the government refused to increase wages.
Washington this week accused Saied of undermining Tunisia's democratic institutions after he fired dozens of judges.
Three small parties and activists loyal to the president, some economists, the Union of Businessmen UTICA and the Human Rights League participated in the first session of the talks in Carthage.
A draft of the new constitution is due to be presented to Saied on June 20.

UPDATE 1-Tunisian judges to strike for a week in protest over purge
04/06/2022 19:26 - RSF
(Adds details)
By Tarek Amara
TUNIS, June 4 (Reuters) - Tunisia's judges will suspend work in courts for a week and hold a sit-in to protest against a purge of their ranks, amid growing tensions over the president's attempts to consolidate one-man rule.
President Kais Saied this week dismissed 57 judges, accusing them of corruption and protecting terrorists in a crackdown on the judiciary - his latest step to tighten his grip on power in the North African country.
Judge Hammadi Rahmani said a meeting of judges on Saturday voted unanimously to suspend work in all courts, and to start the sit-in.
The strike will start on Monday in all judicial institutions and could be extended, Anas Hamaidi, president of the Association of Judges, said.
Last summer, Saied seized executive power in a move his foes called a coup, before setting aside the 2014 constitution to rule by decree and dismissing the elected parliament.
Among the judges fired this week was Youssef Bouzaker, the former head of the Supreme Judicial Council whose members Saied replaced this year.
The council had acted as the main guarantor of judicial independence since Tunisia's 2011 revolution that introduced democracy.
In a session attended by hundreds of judges, some of the dismissed judges said the purge came after they rejected interventions from the justice minister and in some cases from people surrounding the president.
"This injustice will not pass in silence .... These free voices will never be silenced," Hamaidi said. "The attack was not only against judges, but on the law and freedoms."
Rahed Ghannouhci, the speaker of dissolved parliament called in statement for "national forces, parties, civil society, to stand by the judges in resisting the brutal dictatorship to preserve an independent judiciary".
Saied's purge of the judiciary sparked international outrage. Washington accused him of undermining Tunisia's democratic institutions.
