 | | The resident-general is the representative of the French Government at Tunis, and is subordinate to the French minister of foreign affairs. | | | The terrified Bey of Tunis also promised to do the same, yet, in spite of this, Christian ships were repeatedly attacked by Tunisian vessels. | | | In 1871 the sultan granted the hereditary right to rule according to primogeniture to the family of the bey and abandoned all claim to tribute, in return for which the bey promised not to go to war without the permission of the Porte, and to enter into no diplomatic negotiations with foreign powers. |

| | Tunis was already the headquarters of the Arab League which had transferred there from Cairo to punish Egypt for signing a peace agreement with Israel. | | | After this surface change of policy, seventy countries recognized the PLO as the government of the Palestinian Arabs, and Arafat was able to reverse his decline to re-emerge as the clear Palestinian leader following the 1991 Madrid Peace Conference and the 1993 Oslo agreement which was negotiated in secret while Arafat remained in Tunis. | | | Based on the Oslo Accords, Arafat returned to Gaza on July 1, 1994 and set up the new Palestinian Authority there. |
