Tunisia's ruling party says open to creating new government

The Islamist Ennahda party, which heads Tunisia's government, is  open to creating a new government but refuses to dissolve the transitional Constituent Assembly which is only weeks away from finalizing a draft constitution, a party official said.
   
"We are open to all proposals to reach an agreement, including a salvation or unity government," the official, Ameur Larayedh, told Reuters. "But we will not accept dissolving the Constituent Assembly, this is a red line."

this comes as Tunisian Interior Minister Lotfi Ben Jeddou said he was ready to resign, as pressure mounted to dissolve the Islamist-led government.

"I have a great wish to resign, and I am ready to resign," he told the local Mosaique radio station.

"A salvation government or national unity government must be formed to get Tunisia out of this bottleneck."
