Ettakatol denies definitive deal on top posts reached with Ennahdha and CPR

Ettakattol Party denied today that a ''definitive agreement'' had been reached with Ennahdha Party and the Congress for the Republic (CPR) about top posts or the line-up of the next government. "No agreement has so far been concluded about the key positions or the line-up of the next government" Ettakatol spokesman Mohamed Bennour told TAP news agency on the phone. "The news reported about such a deal represent a form of pressure put by some political parties on Ettakatol", Bennour said, adding that such news should be confirmed in a joint statement or announced at a news conference. Several Tunisian and foreign media had reported on Friday evening that an agreement had been reached to share out the top three government posts as follows: Moncef Marzouki as president of the republic, Mustapha Ben Jaafar as speaker for the constituent assembly and Hammadi Jebali as prime minister.
