Letter From Tunis

This is the third article in a new phase of the Strategic Europe 'Capitals Series', this time exploring how EU foreign policy was viewed by ten countries in Europe’s Southern neighbourhood. The series has asked contributors from each capital to give a candid assessment of the EU’s approach toward their country, with a ranking on a scale from 'irrelevant' to 'helpful'. The third article is from Tunisia.

Tunisia’s relations with European Union countries, where roughly a tenth of Tunisians reside, are marked by deep historical links, opportunities, and challenges.
