The new Prime Minister of Tunisia, Beji Caid Essebsi would have accepted the idea of setting up a Constituent Assembly, advocated by a group of parties and NGOs. This decision has, so far, not been confirmed, and the government spokesman, Tayeb Baccouch was unreachable in the afternoon. The Constituent Assembly is a key idea of the Welfare Council of the Revolution, a collective of some 14 political parties, the powerful General Union of Tunisian Workers (UGTT) and civil society organizations.
Tunisian Islamist Nahda movement could benefit from the confusion of government. Largely repressed under the former President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, the party has just been legalized, thirty years after its founding. This initiative will allow Ennahda stand for next elections. Rached Ghannouchi, leader of the party, returned to Tunisia in late January after an exile of twenty years in London.
He founded Ennahda (Renaissance) in 1981 with intellectuals inspired by the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood. At 69 years, Rachid Ghannouchi is considered a moderate. His organization is perceived as less conservative than the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, and is ideologically close to the said ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) to power in Turkey.
