Tunisia’s trade deficit widened by 24% in the first half of 2025, reaching $3.4bn (R60.83bn), official data showed on Friday, underscoring persistent economic pressures on the North African country.
The state Institute of Statistics said that the increase was driven by a rise in imports which reached $14.36bn (R256.89bn), particularly of energy that rose by 13%, while exports remained stagnant.
