Tunisian minister officially asked to cease

Protests were held in Tunisia after the overthrow of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, because the citizens are crying not include members of the old regime in the interim government. On the streets, at least a thousand protesters, complaining about the presence of many ministers of the ousted regime of Ben Ali.

"The people want the government to resign," chanted the demonstrators, who had signs that read: "Traitors, and we are not afraid." "I'm with you. We will not shoot, it is essential that the concentration is peaceful, "said an Army colonel. During the first Council of Ministers after the overthrow of Ben Ali, the interim president, Mohamed Ghanuchi, decided that the State will take possession of "movable and immovable property of the Democratic Constitutional Assembly (RCD) party of ousted president.

Showing signs of democratization, the political police suppressed Ghanuchi universities, traditional centers of agitation. According to the Tunisian Constitution, presidential and legislative elections should be held within two months, in case of power vacuum. But the prime minister has already announced to be "in six months." On the other hand, yesterday the Council of Ministers adopted a draft amnesty law to be discussed in Parliament.

"The movement Ennahdha (party's illegal) is included in the general amnesty," said Higher Education Minister, Ahmed Ibrahim. Although the ruling party Democratic Constitutional Assembly (RCD, in Arabic) lost the sympathy of the Tunisian government because of ousted President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, Tunisia partisan reality is stark, as the six opposition parties present in the House of Deputies only represent 15% of the total, so they have little leeway to alter the political crisis.

The RCD captures 161 seats in the lower house of the 215's in total, while the main opposition party, the Movement of Socialist Democrats (MDS), has just 16 seats, ie 80% less. Yesterday, the government decided to seize all assets of the RCD, but the Tunisians are not happy, they want all of that party ministers resign, so that no trace of Ben Ali.
