Tunisian President Kais Saied held a meeting with the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ibrahim Boudherbala, and the President of the National Council for Regions and Districts, Imad Darbali, at the Carthage Palace.

He stressed that work is ongoing without interruption to respond to the demands of the Tunisian people, not only through legislation but also through a revolutionary thought based on new concepts.

He affirmed that the state is not weak and will not be left vulnerable to anyone, and that challenges will be overcome and achievements realized through swift actions.
