Tunisia summons EU ambassador over diplomatic protocol breach

Tunisian President Kais Saied on Tuesday summoned Giuseppe Perrone, ambassador of the European Union to Tunisia, to lodge a strong protest over what he described as non-compliance with diplomatic protocols, the Tunisian presidency said on Wednesday.
In a statement posted on its Facebook page, the presidency said Saied delivered a “strongly worded protest” to Perrone over conduct deemed outside the “official frameworks recognized in diplomatic practice.”
The move came after a meeting held on Monday between Perrone and Noureddine Taboubi, secretary-general of the Tunisian General Labour Union (UGTT), the country’s largest trade union.
