Description
On December 14, 2010, the Government of China and the Government of Tunisia signed an exchange of letters on the use of goods by Tunisia to repay interest-free loans owed to China. Under the terms of this agreement, the Chinese Government allowed the Tunisian Government to repay an interest-free loan that it previously contracted - and which had entered into the repayment period - with domestically produced exportable commodities.
