President Kais Saied has grown increasingly autocratic since he suspended parliament in 2021 - and since then Tunisia's financial troubles have worsened.
Thousands of people have marched through Tunisia's capital, protesting against an expanding crackdown on opposition voices and a proposed lifting of subsidies for food and other goods.'s central trade union, was the latest challenge to President Kais Saied, whose leadership is prompting growing international concern.
Marchers in Tunis chanted slogans against price increases and food shortages, the biggest concern for most Tunisians. "Tunisia is not a farm, meadow or a land without a master. Whoever wants to demonstrate is free to do so, but he does not have to invite foreigners to participate," he said on the eve of Saturday's march.
