Mauritania Faces Constitutional Crisis

Morphed Mauritanian Parliament Speaker Mohamed Ould Maktab defended the sanctions he imposed on two opposition parliamentarians following their sit-in inside the parliament building, asserting that the decision was made in accordance with the parliament's internal regulations and out of respect for the separation of powers. He emphasized that the measures did not conflict with the Constitutional Court's decisions or the judiciary. He explained that the sanctions were related to their conduct during the sit-in inside the premises, and that the law was what led to their temporary expulsion. Despite this, the opposition rejected the decision, describing its implementation as an attempt to undermine the independence of Parliament and viewing it as a constitutional escalation. They decided to boycott some sessions in protest against what they considered unlawful overreach.
