TUNIS - People keep screaming to get off the streets, showing signs, slogans. Calls for the resignation of the government. He wants to erase the traces of the party that has been in power for 23 years. And the day when you meet for the first time the Council of Ministers of the new 'government of national unity', the protests have had effect.The central committee of the RCD, the party of former Tunisian President Zine el Abidine Ben Ali, is dissolved. He reported the state television, explaining that the decision was taken after several committee members, who are also ministers of the new transitional government have resigned yielding to pressure the opposition.
The TV said that despite the dissolution of the Central Committee, the party will continue to be active. This morning hundreds of people are back where they were yesterday, avenue Bourguiba, in the center of the capital, chanting slogans in favor of change. The police began firing into the air to avoid the crowds to climb over the wall.
"I'm with you. There is shooting at you, what matters is that the rally is peaceful," shouted an army colonel. The protesters arrived outside the headquarters of the Constitutional Democratic Grouping (RCD), the party of ousted President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali. They shouted "the people want the government to resign" showing signs that read: "we no longer afraid of you, traitors!" Or "RCD out." Unlike what happened in recent days (VIDEO), managed to reach the interior ministry and then continue the movement until the RCD headquarters.
The tanks lined up yesterday outside the building this morning because they were gone. At its first meeting, the transitional government Tunisian adopted a general amnesty bill for the text of which will now be presented to parliament. He told the minister for Regional Development, Ahmed Nejib Chebbi.
Simultaneously, the government decided to recognize all the political parties and movements hitherto banned. "We will recognize all political movements," said Minister for Youth, Mohamed Aloulou also implicitly referring to Islamic Ennahda training. In this return to newspapers and even books banned by the previous regime, while the assets were expropriated RCD.
The government has also announced three days of national mourning to honor the victims of the demonstrations last month. All moves designed to placate the protests. In addition, the government is continuously faced with the resignation of some members of opposition. The question that arises is who will replace five ministers who have left office, including three representatives of the union UGTT.
"We must broaden the base of representation as possible of this government - says Issam Chebbi, Nejib brother and member of the Political Bureau - the other political forces, a figure close to the union and also, why not the Islamists."
