Tunisia-[Video] Riadh Jrad:”Ennahdha changed from the slogan Islam is in danger to democracy in danger”

Today they have discovered themselves outside the circle of power and political influence so they have changed their view”

Remarking on the Ennahdha movement’s statement released today, September 23, 2021, Jrad stated that the “jamaa” sect has gone from the slogan of “Islam is in danger” to “democracy is in danger”. “What democracy are they speaking about? the murder of 20,000 Tunisians by the Coronavirus? That of the assassination of our brave soldiers, particularly at Mont Chaanbi or the explosion of the presidential security bus in the heart of Avenue Mohamed V? Or the democracy of the passing of thousands of young migrants in the sea? He asked them.
