The EU High Representative for foreign affairs Federica Mogherini has congratulated the new government of Tunisia, following the confidence vote obtained at the People’s Representatives Assembly, and ensured the EU’s support to the government.
“The new government will build on the work of the government of Habib Essid, both in the preparation of major development projects that the country needs as well as to intensify the privileged partnership between the EU and the Tunisia”, said Mogherini in a statement.
“Since the Revolution, the EU has mobilised all its instruments, political, technical and financial, to support the Tunisian people in its transition. It renews today its determination to continue, in close collaboration with the government of Youssef Chahed and by involving all the forces of civil society, providing a strong support that helps improve the lives of Tunisians, and thus restore confidence, particularly among youth, in the prospect of a better future”, she added.
