Les impacts du chute des prix de pétrole sur l'économie Tunisienne

Oil prices have fallen by about half since September 2014. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) decided not to reduce production.

For Tunisia, this new situation offers the opportunity to reform energy subsidies and accelerate structural reforms to support growth and employment
