Tunisia's president: Prime Minister should step down if he can't solve economic crisis

Tunisia's president on Sunday said Prime Minister Youssef Chahed should step down or seek a confidence quote if the country's political and economic crisis continues.

President Beji Caid Essebsi's son, Hafedh Caid Essebsi, who is leader of the ruling Nidaa Tounes party, called last May for Chahed's dismissal because of his government's failure to revive the economy.
