Security Cooperation: The US delivered about $1m in security equipment to Tunisia’s Interior Ministry units to boost crisis-response and counter-terrorism capabilities. Supply Strains: Despite 2.4% growth, Tunisia faces shortages of staple goods and bottled water, blamed on weak distribution and import funding constraints.
