Ironically, the Quartet is quite controversial in Tunisia (I'm Tunisian), some sees it a businessmen-controlled organization that is steering the political scene in Tunisia, while others see it as a left-controlled organization that is doing the same. All in all, a lot of people were not happy with these organizations mingling with the politics of the country.
So I would say, this news came as a big surprise to us. Sarcastic comments has been popping all around on social media since the announcement.
- nabla9 11y agoAccording to your description (quite controversial. .some see it as businessmen-controlled .. while others see it as a left-controlled organization ...a lot of people were not happy) Tunisian National Dialogue Quartet has all the attributes of organization representing the values of pluralistic democracy. It makes everyone equally unhappy while avoiding violence in decision making.
- notNow 11y agoEvery political organization would be viewed as controversial esp. in a highly partisan atmosphere so I am not surprised to hear this from you even if it contradicts the sentiment I get from my Tunisian friends online today. By the way, I'd take a politically ambitious organizations and NGOs over military-backed rule anytime of the day. So count your blessings and have some leniency or leeway for these organization as the other alternative would a military hellhole like Egypt (Egyptian here) تحيا تونس حرة مستقلة
