Tunisia, Germany announce new immigration deal

TUNIS, March 3, (APP/AFP) – 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.
