Statements by Romdhane Ben Amor, spokesperson for the Tunisian Forum for Economic and Social Rights: "It is an acceptable number of protesters in a context of great fear and aggression, especially after Said's speech yesterday, which threatens opponents who have a critical view of the political and electoral process, but the mobilization of young people must be highlighted,"

Statements by Mustapha Benahmed, Xxdeputy: "There is a small resistance, but in the future we can build around that resistance. We have to start over because there has been a decline in militancy. There has been a decline in political and associative movements. It needs time to come back and to mobilize more people."
