MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Last week, US President Barack Obama announced he designated Tunisia as a major non-NATO ally of Washington. Following the statement, media reports suggested the Tunisian government allowed the alliance to deploy a military base in the north African country.
"This is not true, there are no such plans. Tunisia would never agree to the presence of any foreign military base on its territory," Mohamed Ennaceur told RT in an interview.
Ennaceur stressed his opposition to the US and NATO intentions to use army and air forces to fight terrorism in Libya, as that would be an intervention.
