1925

Mohammed Mzali (محمد مزالي, 23 December 1925 – 23 June 2010) was a Tunisian politician who served as prime minister between 1980 and 1986.

Mzali was born in Monastir, Tunisia on 23 December 1925.

His family has ancestry from the Ait Mzal tribe, a Berber tribe from the Sous region of Morocco.

He was vice president of the Federation of Destourian Students in France from 1949 to 1950 and participated in literary social circles.

He co-founded the literary magazine Al-Fikr in 2955 with Béchir Ben Slama.

Mzali was a member of the Socialist Destourian Party.

1950

He held a series of government posts starting in the late 1950s that would eventually culminate in his becoming prime minister in the early 1980s.

Mzali met Fethia Mokhtar while they were both studying in Paris, and they married in 1950.

1959

He was first elected to Parliament in 1959 and would be re-elected several times thereafter.

Other national positions he held starting in his early career included: General Director for Youth and Sport, founding Director of the Tunisia Radio and Television Company, Minister of Defence, Minister of Youth and Sport, Minister of National Education, Minister of Public Health, and Minister of Interior.

1965

He served as a member of the International Olympic Committee from 1965 until his death.

1970

1980

Mzali was appointed Prime Minister of Tunisia by President Habib Bourguiba on 23 April 1980.

1984

President Bourguiba announced on 6 January 1984 that the increase in the price of bread and flour had been cancelled.

He gave the impression that Mzali had not been authorized to raise prices.

Mzali temporarily assumed the post of Minister of the Interior.

In an attempt to recover his popularity, Mzali toured the provinces after the riots, promising projects to create new jobs.

He said "the first lesson to be drawn from the events of January was that it is necessary to reorganise the forces of order so that they can respond adequately to all situations."

He was replaced by Rachid Sfar.
