On the sidelines of the 80th UN General Assembly, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Mohamed Ali Nafti met on Friday the secretary general of the Council of Europe, Alain Berset. The discussion focused on the state of bilateral cooperation and the means of strengthening it, while respecting national sovereignty and mutual interest.
The exchanges made it possible to take stock of the support provided to Tunisia as part of the South V program. This covers several strategic aspects: the fight against corruption, cybersecurity, child protection, women’s rights and the promotion of good governance.
