The former Minister of Tourism, René Trabelsi, reacted to the assault of which a Tunisian citizen of Jewish confession on the island of Djerba was the victim and called to rejection of any political instrumentalization.
The former Minister of Tourism, René Trabelsi, reacted, in a publication on his official Facebook page, to the aggression suffered yesterday by a Tunisian citizen of Jewish confession on the island of Djerba.
He said that “Tunisia will always remain a country of coexistence and tolerance”, and that such isolated acts “do not reflect the spirit of the Tunisian people, recognized for their solidarity and unity. »»
Trabelsi also wanted to emphasize that the inhabitants of Djerba, all components combined, remain attached to the values of citizenship and national belonging, while expressing his confidence in state institutions, in particular the security forces and justice, to shed light on the incident.
He concluded his publication with a message of hope: “Tunisia is fine, and will always remain a land of peace and harmony. Long live Tunisia, long live Tunisia, long live Tunisia. »»
As a reminder, an incident involving physical violence took place yesterday in Djerba (governorate of Médenine), targeting a Tunisian citizen following a dispute. This type of incident, unfortunately, can occur in different regions of the country. However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Zionist entity attempted to instrumentalize this act, calling to “protect the Jews in Tunisia”.
The position of René Trabelsi, himself a Jewish Tunisian, blocks attempts at foreign interference and recalls that this type of case is exclusively of the Tunisian national framework.
