Tunisia's Prime Minister Youssef Chahed
Tunisia's government is seeking to agree a realistic pay deal with the UGTT union taking into account public finances, Prime Minister Youssef Chahed said on Saturday.
About 650,000 public sector workers went on strike and thousands joined protests across Tunisia on Thursday over the government's refusal to raise wages amid threats from international lenders to stop financing Tunisia's tattered economy.
