Tunisia's moderate Islamist party Ennahda to withdraw confidence from govt

15 Jul 2020 / 07:26 H.

    TUNIS, July 15 (Reuters) - Tunisia's moderate Islamist party Ennahda, the biggest party in the country's parliament, decided on early Wednesday to withdraw confidence from the government, a senior official in Ennahda told Reuters.

    Ennahdha's move would deepen the political crisis in the country amid a dispute with Prime Minister Elyes Fakhfkah, whom Ennahdha says has lost credibility due to an alleged conflict of interest.
