Tunisia's Crackdown on Opposition Leaders Sparks Global Concerns.
Tunisian opposition leader Rached Ghannouchi has been detained by authorities on charges of "conspiracy against state security" after making comments warning about the potential for civil war if Tunisia's various political currents were excluded. Ghannouchi's daughter claims his words have been taken out of context. Critics fear that President Kais Saied's moves against the opposition, including Ghannouchi's arrest, will lead to more crackdowns and restrictions on political pluralism and human rights in Tunisia.
