Receiving, Monday, several political party leaders, Prime Minister Habib Essid called for national unity preservation, away from any tight calculation.
“Though we guarantee the right to protest peacefully, we no longer tolerate ongoing attacks against the institutions of sovereignty and public properties and attempts to make chaos prevail,” he pointed out, referring to the attack against the police and torching institutions of sovereignty and police stations.
In this regard, he called political parties and national actors to warn against the seriousness of such actions and to play their roles in guidance and raising awareness about the acuity of the stage.
“Weakening the State and undermining its foundations may give free reign to chaos and abandon the country to an uncertain destiny,” he said.
Essid specified that “difference and diversity are the essence of democratic exercise, affirming however, that we could not be divided on the principle of preserving the homeland’s invulnerability, stability and development.
