US discusses need for Tunisia prime minister designate

The US deputy national security adviser met the Tunisian president on Friday and discussed the urgent need for Tunisia to appoint a prime minister-designate to form a capable government, the White House said in a statement.

The statement also said the adviser, Jonathan Finer, delivered a message to President Kais Saied from President Joe Biden, "reaffirming his personal support, and that of the Biden-Harris Administration, for the Tunisian people and urging a swift return to the path of Tunisia’s parliamentary democracy."
