The President of the Republic stressed, in this sense, that Tunisia, which accepts cooperation, does not accept anything that resembles charity, “because our country and our people do not want empathy… As a result, Tunisia refuses what has been reported in recent days by the European Union, not because of the insignificant amount, because for our people, the treasures of the whole world are not worth a single iota of our sovereignty, but because “that this suggestion contradicts the memorandum of understanding which was inked in the spirit which prevailed during the Rome Conference last July, which was a Tunisian-Italian initiative”.
President Saïed clarified that “Tunisia is doing everything possible to dismantle the criminal networks of trafficking in human beings and organs, in addition to the fact that our country has never been the reason for this misery encountered by most African people. and like many countries, it has suffered in turn from the current world order and neither it nor the nations from which these migratory waves come want to be victims again of a world system in which justice does not prevail. not and in which the human being is not respected.
