Saudi Arabia Extends $400 Million Soft Loan and $100 Million Grant to Aid Tunisia’s Financial Crisis
Saudi Arabia has announced that it will provide Tunisia with a $400 million soft loan and a $100 million grant to help address the country’s financial challenges. Tunisia is facing a debt crisis and shortages of essential goods, and the financial support from Saudi Arabia comes at a crucial time.
The Saudi finance minister, Mohammed Al-Jadaan, expressed the kingdom’s commitment to providing additional support from the Saudi Development Fund and other development funds in the Gulf in the coming weeks. Tunisia is also seeking funds from other Gulf states, as talks on a $1.9 billion loan have been stalled since October.
