The President's Not Going to Resign, but He's Going to Step Back

The constitution allows the president to assume emergency powers for a period of 30 days. Since then, he has made it clear that he has no intention of relinquishing power any time soon. For many people in tunesia, and this has been true for years, their main concern is not the structure of their political system, it's the economy. If pisaid can do something on the economy, he'll have support. But so far, for two months that he's been in control, he really hasn't outlined much in the way of an economic programme.
