Foreign Policy
Tunisia traditionally pursues a pragmatic, non-aligned foreign policy, maintaining good relations with both Western and Arab states. The EU and France remain its most important economic partners. Tunisia has leveraged its position on irregular migration to negotiate financial support packages from Europe.
Tunis supports Palestinian statehood and maintains a consistent pro-Palestine position. It favors multilateral approaches to regional security and has contributed to UN peacekeeping operations.
MUN Delegate Guide
As Tunisia, present yourself as a pragmatic North African voice that bridges the Arab and African worlds. Historically emphasize your democratic transition (even as domestic politics have shifted), and advocate for democratic governance and human rights in UN forums.
Align with the Arab Group on Palestine and regional issues. Work with Mediterranean partners on migration, climate adaptation, and economic development. On migration, argue that root causes -- poverty, instability, climate change -- must be addressed rather than relying on border enforcement alone. Tunisia can play a useful consensus-building role between blocs.
