SNAP ANALYSIS-Tunisian PM resignation may encourage opposition News by Country Reuters
TUNIS Feb 27 (Reuters) - The resignation of Tunisian Prime Minister Mohamed Ghannouchi was aimed at easing street tensions, but could backfire by encouraging the opposition to make further demands, analysts said on Sunday.
Ghannouchi's resignation followed days of violent protests against his leadership of the interim government which is charged with preparing elections.
North Africa's most developed state has been in flux since an uprising toppled President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali on Jan. 14, and critics of Ghannouchi have accused him of being too close to the former leadership.
