“Legislative elections in Tunisia were carried out peacefully and without any civil disorders in the last days. This marked a substantial and important step towards democracy and Europe” said Alessandro Perelli, Vice President of ALDA and coordinator of the working group for Mediterranean Africa. “Tunisians, after the Jasmin Revolution of 2010, showed great maturity and demonstrated that they want to continue on the path that already led to a modern Constitution, which contains also significant laws on gender equality”, added Perelli.
“These elections force us to work harder on the opening of a Local Democracy Agency in Tunisia, as ALDA Governing Board decided. Now we working on the last tests concerning logistics issues, operational partnership, and citizenship participation. These last events represent a sign of optimism for Europe and stress the importance of neighbourhood policy, in which the countries of Mediterranean Africa are fully involved” concluded Perelli.
