MP Yassine Ayari coincided with Prime minister Hichem Mechichi who had connected illegal immigration with terrorism, stipulating that it is specifically terrorism exercised by the State against young people who forced them to flee their homeland.
In a Facebook post, he wrote”When Tunisia approved the 1995 Accord, which devastated the national industry and caused thousands of young Tunisians to lose employment chances, and when Europe backs a dictator who had seized 17% of the gross national product and inflicts on us the DCFTA (Comprehensive and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement), which will destroy the Tunisian farmers, isn’t it terrorism? he questioned.
Tunisians now resort to illegal immigration because essential sectors like education and health have been forgotten by the state and because corruption and laziness have become the law, added Ayari.
The deputy, in the same vein, emphasised that “illegal immigration is linked to the worst sort of terrorism that is, the one that kills dreams and hopes”, considering that those who have fled this misery are the victims of this terrorism.
