Attayar Calls Fakhfakh To Delegate Current Affairs Management To One Of His Ministers
(TAP)-The National Council of the Democratic Current (Attayar) called on Monday on the resigning Prime Minister Elyes Fakhfakh to delegate the management of current affairs to one of his ministers.
In a statement, the party emphasised the need for ministers to continue their task in the caretarker government to guarantee the continuity of the State and the general interest.
Held Sunday in Tunis in its 27th session, the council stressed the concern to follow the administrative and judicial process of the conflict of interest case of which the head of government is suspected and which is at the origin of his resignation.
In reaction to the correspondence from the President of the Republic to the presidents of the parties, coalitions and parliamentary groups in which he invites them to propose candidates for the primacy, the Democratic Current recommends intensifying consultations for the formation of a united government that stands far from partisan interests and committed to continue on the path of reform, the statement reads.
On another level, the current indicates that the government's action has been marked by sharp political conflicts arising from one of its components. This has given rise to a parliamentary "troika" which has denigrated the work of the government and violated the parliament's rules of procedure.
He added that the conflict of interest case had aggravated the political crisis.
A case which the Democratic Current has chosen to deal with rationally on the basis of the first reports of the control structures, the same source says.
The Democratic Current commends the government's handling of the pandemic. A difficult period that did not prevent the government team from making achievements, including the opening of the file on confiscated assets and the "revolutionary" measures and legislation taken in terms of good governance and the digitisation of the administration.
