Tunisia, Germany announce new immigration deal

TUNIS, March 3, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 03rd Mar, 2017 ) - Tunisia and Germany announced on Friday a new agreement on tackling illegal migration, during a visit by Chancellor Angela Merkel.

The accord follows frictions between the two countries over the case of a Tunisian rejected asylum seeker blamed for a truck rampage at a Berlin Christmas market that killed 12 people.

This agreement "will satisfy Tunisia and will satisfy Germany," Tunisian President Beji Caid Essebsi said at a joint press conference with Merkel.
