TUNIS, March 30 (Xinhua) -- Tunisian Prime Minister Youssef Chahed met with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, Tunis Afrique Presse (TAP) reported Saturday.

According to TAP, the UN secretary-general called on the international community to support Tunisia through the promotion of local economic development, youth development and the creation of jobs.
"The economic difficulties and security challenges currently facing Tunisia are due to the direct impact of the Libyan crisis on Tunisia," said Guterres.
