Marzouki stresses Tunisian support for the Palestinian cause

Tunisian President Mohamed Moncef Marzouki stressed that the Tunisian people will always support the Palestinians, and that the Palestinian cause will remain one of Tunisia’s most important issues.

This came during a telephone call between Gaza Premier Ismail Haneyya and the Tunisian president on Saturday evening.

Haneyya urged Marzouki to place the Palestinian cause on the top priorities of his agenda in the upcoming Arab summit scheduled to take place at the end of this month in Kuwait.

He has also briefed Marzouki on the current events and developments in the Palestinian arena; pointing to the escalation of the Israeli occupation’s Judaization plans and settlement activities, the continuation of blockade on Gaza and the continued violations against the Palestinian people.
