Tunisia Election Crisis

Tunisia—the birthplace of the Arab Spring—stands once again at a historic crossroads. Tunisia Election Crisis is a Strategic Political Intelligence Report that analyses the October 2024 presidential election, the consolidation of power by President Kais Saied, and the growing risk of systemic instability beneath the surface of electoral legitimacy.

This report examines how constitutional overreach, the sidelining of opposition candidates, and the erosion of institutional checks have hollowed out Tunisia’s democratic architecture. It connects electoral outcomes with deeper structural pressures: soaring inflation, food shortages, unemployment, and widening public disillusionment—conditions strikingly similar to those that ignited mass protests in 2010.

Beyond domestic politics, the report assesses regional and international implications. Tunisia’s instability carries direct consequences for North Africa, migration flows into Europe, EU political leverage, and the risk of contagion across fragile neighbours already grappling with unrest. Special attention is given to migration pressures, extremist exploitation risks, and the “domino effect” scenario should protests escalate.

Designed for policymakers, diplomats, investors, security analysts, and Africa watchers, this intelligence product converts protests and ballots into strategic foresight.

Political collapse rarely announces itself—it builds quietly. Following Global Eye Intelligence ensures you spot the warning signs early, before Tunisia’s crisis reshapes regional stability and global migration dynamics.
