It's a big shame for all the Tunisians in foreign country's . We still wait for a real change to real democraty in Tunisia. This dictator must leave. Corruption, torture, no press freedom, prison for opposition,... it's the Pinochet of North Africa. The democratic world must act and act now ! After more than 20 years he broke all his promises and Tunisia is no one step further in democracy. The democratic world and the UN must condem this 'theatre the dictature' in the most strongest way.
