الإصلاحات الجريئة المقترحة في قانون المالية لسنة 2025 قد تغير وجه الاقتصاد في تونس، عن طريق حل عجز الميزانية المزمن، وبناء نظام ضريبي أكثر عدلًا. لكن المخاطر أيضًا كبيرة.

عن المكاسب والمخاطر المحتملة تكتب @saharmechmech.bsky.social، مديرة الاقتصادات الشاملة بمعهد التحرير timep.org/post-arabic/...

People denied legitimacy in society being detained without trial indefinitely at locations (with a history of torture) isolated from the rest of the community

Up to you to determine if I’m talking about Nazi Germany, Israeli administrative detention, or Trump’s new plans for undocumented people

As the war in Sudan persists in 2025, Mohaned Elnour stresses how critical it is for policymakers to put Sudan high on their foreign policy agendas.

He calls for "immediate and multifaceted policy actions to address the evolving nature of the violence."

اليوم، وكما عهدنا دائمًا في معهد التحرير لسياسات الشرق الأوسط، نتشرف بالوقوف إلى جانب الشعب السوري، في الوطن والمهجر، وهو يطوي صفحة مؤلمة من تاريخه، تفرق فيها الأحباء، وأُزهقت فيها الأرواح البريئة، وتشوهت فيها ملامح وطن جميل وعريق.

After a year dedicated to researching the deployment of white phosphorus by Israel in Lebanon, we are proud to launch WhitePhosphorus.info. This platform is an essential resource for tracking this toxic weapon, especially as people begin returning to their lands. #Lebanon
Over the past year, we have been verifying, geolocating, and mapping white phosphorus use by Israel over Lebanon.

Today, we’re officially launching whitephosphorus.info, a platform dedicated to tracking the distribution of this toxic weapon. 🧵
