Some Tunisians are asking whether the country is in the midst of a quiet, constitutional coup.
This is in light of a series of increasingly combative moves made by Tunisian President Kais Saied over recent months, causing some observers to warn that Saied could be preparing the ground for further action to eliminate his opponents and strengthen his presidential powers, based on his own interpretation of the country’s post-Arab Spring constitution.
Saied cuts an unusual figure in contemporary Tunisian politics. A little-known constitutional law professor who ran as an independent candidate without the backing of an organised or expensive campaign, Kais Saied was elected with over 70 percent of the vote in October 2019.
