]]> Tunisian president Beji Caid Essebsi’s invited President Jacob Zuma to join him and other African and world leaders on Sunday in his capital for a march against terrorism.

Zuma will be in neighbouring Algeria for a bi-national commission meeting starting on Monday.

Tunisian ambassador Mohamed Fadhel Ayari expresses the wish President Jacob Zuma will join the march against terrorism and for civilisation.

He tells guests at his national day reception in Pretoria that Tunisia is shocked by the killing of 20 tourists by terrorists at the Barda Museum in Tunis last week.

Ayari says the attack should not distract from the reality that Tunisia has undergone a democratic transformation.

He invited his guests to visit Tunisia which relies heavily on its tourism industry.
