TUNIS (Reuters) – A proposed constitution that includes broad powers for Tunisia’s president and a reduced role for other bodies and institutions could threaten democracy, the head of the powerful UGTT union said on Saturday.
But the union, which has more than 1 million members, said in a statement that it would allow its members the freedom to vote as they choose on the constitution proposed this week by President Kais Saied, who said he would put it to a referendum this month.
