AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Tunisia Protest Wave: Five years after President Kais Saied suspended parliament and ruled by decree, Tunisians are again taking to the streets with renewed demands for “employment, freedom and national dignity,” as water cuts, electricity outages, price hikes and medicine shortages sharpen anger and narrow political space. Power Crisis Escalates: A new heatwave pushed temperatures near 50°C in Kairouan, worsening rotating power cuts and water disruptions; doctors warn of mounting pressure on emergency services as households struggle with unreliable electricity and drinking water. Civic Freedoms Under Strain: Four Tunisian activists linked to the Global Sumud Flotilla remain detained for over five months, with rights groups urging release over due process and fair-trial concerns amid broader restrictions on civic and media freedoms. Humanitarian Pressure at Sea: Tunisia’s migrant boat tragedies keep mounting, with reports of bodies recovered after sinkings near Zarzis and other incidents along the Central Mediterranean route. Regional Diplomacy: Germany’s foreign minister is set to visit Tunisia and Algeria, focusing on security cooperation and energy links, including connecting Tunisia to the European grid. Libya Election Roadmap: In Libya, rival factions signed a UN-backed agreement to hold presidential and legislative elections within 24 months under a unified executive authority, with implementation steps and electoral framework amendments now pending.
