Growing opposition to president as new parties join boycott of December elections
On 3 October three new political parties joined the boycott of the parliamentary elections that are due to be held on 17 December. This came after 13 other political parties announced a boycott of the election in September, opposing the new electoral law imposed by President Kaïs Saïed. Anti-government protests followed later on 15 October, demanding Saïed’s resignation and accountability for the economic crisis.
