Tunisia's foreign ministry said on Tuesday that comments by Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan on dissolving the Tunisian Parliament last week was "an unacceptable interference" in internal affairs, the state news agency reported.

Earlier on Tuesday, Erdogan slammed a move by Tunisia's leader to dissolve the Parliament as a "smearing of democracy" and a blow to the will of the Tunisian people.
