Tunisian Minister of Transport Abdulkareem al-Harouni has announced that Tunisia will begin discussions on Tuesday with the European Union over the possibility of the country joining the Treaty on Open Skies.
The treaty came into effect at the first of January 2002 and now includes 32 states. The agreement allows the presence in the signatories’ skies of unarmed monitoring aeroplanes for the purpose of exploration. The Treaty for Open Skies aims at promoting mutual trust and understanding by giving all participants, regardless of the size of the state, a direct role in collecting information about the armed forces and activities that concerns it.
By signing the treaty, Tunisia hopes to raise the number of tourists visiting the country, especially via low-cost carriers.
