I'm working 24 hours a day. I have had a house in Tunisia for 20 years, and I never have time to go because there are collections, fittings.
Im the ranking Republican on the foreign aid appropriations subcommittee, so I know Tunisia well.
We in Tunisia have no problem with respecting other peoples religion, and we have a long tradition of that.
I hope that with the success of the transition to democracy in Tunisia that we will export to Egypt a working democratic model.
The problem with what we call the 'Arab spring' is that these are very nationalistic experiences. Tunisians are concerned with Tunisia, Egyptians concerned with Egypt and so on.
