The International Union said in a statement: "We affirm the sanctity of the assault on the social contract that was carried out by the will of the Tunisian people, and it regulates the relationship between the presidency, the House of Representatives and the prime minister, and preserves the people's gains in freedom and the rule of law, rejecting tyranny and dictatorship and sacrificing the blood of the righteous from the Tunisian people."

The union called on President Kais Saied to "return from these decisions that increase the cycle of loss for the Tunisian people and contribute to deepening chaos and turmoil."

He also called on the Tunisian people to "preserve their gains, sacrifices, and freedom, not to accept a return to dictatorship, and to agree to spare the country the potential dangers due to the vacuum, chaos, and division."

The statement stressed that "the coup against the will of the Tunisians and the elected institutions and the taking of unilateral measures is a dangerous matter and is not permissible according to Sharia, morals or custom.
