expression. lee, thanks so much for joining us from the tennessee in capital. let's cost over $200.00. val corresponded who's covered to nicea and the revolutions since 2011 extensively for us here on the channel. but obviously a very busy day for the president had a lot on his plate besides speak, you obviously now to build jerry and president in the unions which, you know, he's been talking to in depth. he's now taking the decision to replace the defend son. justice ministers gives us the impression now that he is in charge and he's moving forward. obviously yours. that's, that should be the message. but also remember that replacing a defense minister at this time of crisis when the army is in the streets, is a sign of something wrong going on. is at least a sign of the president being gravely concerned about his situation and about his own safety. with regards to the military, i mean in a normal situation,
5:09 pm
the defense minister, when his armies are in the streets, should be in charge. if he is replaced, it means that there is probably some disagreement between him and the president. the president is unhappy with him or he's afraid of him. so this, this is a fine of, but it didn't being very much concerned about the continuance of his presidency and about the army staying on his, on his fight. so he's, he's in his actually inaction behind the scenes and, you know, on this, you know, well frank, to consolidate his place and to make sure that the das 2 measures that he has taken do not affect him or not affect the status quo of he as you as like once it to be the technician, people are waiting for more from the president. i think he owes them more x. he owes them explanations of what of what happened. he needs to address the public to explain his decisions. he needs to convince more people he needs to to convince the
5:10 pm
police complaint at the party is these other components of the political class to come probably for a kind of unified action. and that's something i think it's going to be a long way for him to go because they are very angry with him. we have seen the criticism today by the, by the speak of the parliament to represent one of the, probably the biggest party tunisia, another party. the other parties are unhappy as well. so he has a lot of work on his hands before he manages to really return the situation to back to normal intonation. manuel hinder, ha, thanks very much. well, president guy's side says that article 80 of tennessee is constitution essentially gives him the power to push out the prime minister. but according to the article, the president may take any measures necessary in the event of imminent danger threatens the nation's institutions, security or independence. however, the clause also states that before extraordinary action, the president must 1st consult with the head of government and speaker of the
5:11 pm
assembly. it states that after 30 days, a speaker may reach out to the constitutional court, which can then determine if the president's actions were warranted, unconstitutional. let's go straight over to santa jabar in london, he's the international. he is an international lawyer and political analyst and joins us again here when i was there. mr. jabar, thanks so much for joining us again on the program. it seems that the president is going ahead, rough shod through the constitution and not really following it the way many analysts would have thought he would. well, he's a very bad course, it's, you know, professor, he was a professor the constitution at low, but it seems that he has to learn the lessons he was teaching to the student. firstly, how, why you later, blatantly grossly one of the most institutions or organs which he's not, he's moving against an independent judiciary, which is the constitutional court. he's moving against one of the most sensitive
5:12 pm
issues or institution, which is the army. he's weak against the justice ministry these that according to measure, he's acting a little bit because they might know and he should be stop here. the party, you know, the major parties how to get the parliament gives him. he is acting as if the 2 nice teeth please see, can you see him seems to be the problem in the system. so he's missing the point in what he has been doing at least expertise. he didn't go and he came to power after them dependency. the, it's very elegance mine of the position except we can president. and after he's been cutting out the, could you look up to see because he should man up nice. guy
5:13 pm
has a mess, you know, the history over the expertise. and so if this is the case now the scenario got the tendency people actually facing. he does seem to be able to move forward by obviously wanting to appoint new defense and justice ministers. we've heard earlier in the day that he's been speaking to very powerful unions who have great influence across trinity in society, but also to the military as well. and he's been speaking to his neighbors, such as the president of algeria, and had comment from germany. what to read into all of this is this sort of an innate sort of rubber stamp that yes. go ahead with what you are doing. we will support you julia and the idea of the g 7. never like the spring or pizza results, but the co exist with the situation in the want to be to stay stable and where things are moving from the way the police and he's doing doing good. this
