A failed democracy? | Inside Story
Major rallies in the Tunisian capital. Protesters say the president is reversing political freedoms gained more than a decade ago. That's when the Arab Spring led to the ousting of former President Zine El Abi-dine Ben Ali – and sparked uprisings across the Arab world. This time, Tunisians accuse president Kais Saied of orchestrating a power grab and further weakening their economy. So, can their anger make a difference? And how is it being viewed in the region? Presenter: Laura Kyle Guests Tarek Kahlaoui, columnist and former Director of the Tunisian Institute of Strategic Studies. Yasmine Akrimi, research analyst focussing on North Africa for the Brussels International Center. Amine Snoussi, political anlyst and journalist covering Tunisa and North Africa.
