Questions about the international community's response to the measures of Tunisian President Qais Said, as well as the responsibility of the West for the "intimidation" of the Ukrainian people, and finally warnings of a "global cyber war", are among the most prominent interests of some British newspapers.
In the Independent Online newspaper, there is a question about the international community's response to what is going on in Tunisia, where "democracy is threatened".
Bill True, the Independent correspondent, said that at least until the summer of 2021, Tunisia was the only success story of the Arab Spring uprisings in 2011, which, in many parts of the region, facilitated the emergence of more authoritarian regimes or wars that do not seem to be ended.
However, True added that "in a step that surprised the world, the independent populist President Qais Saeed announced the state of emergency in July 2021 and the absolute control of the executive and legislative authorities, the constitution was suspended, the prime minister and the frozen parliament were dismissed.".
And she points out that the Tunisian President has always repeated that his decisions aim to save Tunisia from collapse, and came in response to popular calls for change after mass protests against poverty, corruption and restrictions on the Corona virus.

The professor of constitutional law was accused of shattering the Tunisian constitution, and both experts and opponents, especially from the Islamic Renaissance Party, who dominated the political scene in Tunisia for years, said that he (the president) runs a coup, according to Trou..
Saeed went this week further, as he strengthened his grip on the judiciary, and said that the appointments were granted in the past "according to the loyalties.".He declared the formation of a higher council for the judiciary, after the old council was dissolved, a body that was widely praised when it was created after the revolution, which is charged with appointing the nation’s judges and ensuring the independence of the judiciary..
Tru said that while the international community allowed the Tunisian President's procedures last summer to pass without a deterrent, the movement in the Supreme Judicial Council has angered many countries, the European Union and the United Nations Human Rights Disagreement, Michelle Bachelet, who said it was "seriously undermined the rule of law".

She added that there is certainly a few of the remaining independent institutions in the country, which was not controlled by the president.One of them is the electoral body, which is seen as one of the greatest achievements of the revolution, and which some fear will not last.The other is the very strong Tunisian General Union, which includes about one million members and can be a strong opponent of Saeed.
The Independent correspondent says that last January, the Tunisian General Labor Union criticized the "road map" for the future of Tunisia, which Said announced in December, saying that the setting dates this year was positive, but this "does not end the individual judgment and exclusionBut the union did not take a solid position against these measures, but Saeed met the president of the federation last month, which means that they will have a place with him in the future.

In the Guardian, there is an article on the Russian -Ukrainian crisis, and how "the Western strategy recklessly in dealing with the situation, which sparked the Ukrainian panic", was exposed to Ukrainian writer Alexandra Matzota.
The writer said that the Ukrainian citizens "are not worried and there is no panic in the streets, but they stored fuel, food and jazz games to distract themselves from anxiety.".
"Two weeks ago, I met my foreign colleagues and told them that I am 90 percent sure that Russia will not attack.But today the situation has changed, due to the ongoing Russian crowds, the possibilities are now 50/50..
However, there is no panic in the streets and you will not see an empty supermarket from basic commodities, restaurants and shopping centers full of people who live a life that looks normal.But anxiety chases us all the time, according to the writer."My little family decided that if there is an emergency, we will meet in my house without contact.I think many people have similar plans. ".
Matzota added that it was like others that bought enough food for a month, water and other non -damaged materials.At the beginning of the month, I bought a firewood stove for heating in the event of power or gas, and fuel for the electricity generator so that they can ship the phones, as well as the jazz games for fun and occupy themselves.
The Ukrainian writer carried the Western leaders some blame for what was happening in Ukraine.
"President Biden started the table tennis game with Putin, they like two dogs who bark are trying to show each other who is the best, and we are stuck in the middle," she said..
"Supporting foreign partners is very important for Ukraine, but at the present time it is also important to choose your words carefully.Each Ukrainian is affected by foreign politicians about an unavoidable Russian attack..
And "regardless of how much we say to ourselves that everything is fine, you cannot remain calm when you see 10 times a day about an imminent attack or intelligence information about the possible dates of the invasion that changes daily," says the writer..
Alexandra notes that people are joking, saying that the time has come to publish a schedule for the entire year of 2022 so that we can plan our lives around them..
And in the Financial Times, we read an article on the cybersecurity that threatens technological systems around the world, for former US intelligence officer Keith Alexander.
Alexander dealt with the crisis between Russia and Ukrina from a different perspective, and considered that "the cyberspace against Kyiv is a threat to the world order, and cybersecurity remains the open part of democracies.".
He said that we must "unite together to defend ourselves.".
The former head of the National Security Agency added that the world "is currently watching what might be the first large -scale electronic war to be prepared.With the presence of about 130,000 Russian soldiers spread around the borders of Ukraine, the risk of invasion is high, and there is no doubt that such a modern military campaign will include almost certainly a large -scale electronic attack..
Even if there is no Russian attempt to invade Ukraine with the traditional forces, there is a great consensus that Russian President Vladimir Putin put himself in a position that must do something.The electronic attack, which, which is easy and relatively cheap, is likely to top the list of priorities, according to the American writer.
Alexander believes that, as Russia did during the 2008 Georgia's conflict, the penetration of government systems as well as the financial and energy sectors can cause chaos..
He warned that some in the West "might think this is not their problem," but he says that this position "reflects the ignorance of history".He adds that "less than five years ago, Russia carried out an electronic attack in the name of Notpetya, which targeted the Ukrainian energy, transportation and financial systems in an attempt to increase the destruction of the country.But instead of the cybersecurity of the micro -smart bomb, Notpetya quickly spread all over the world..
The writer reminded that the attack causes massive operational disturbances for companies all over the world, in the United States, Britain, France, Germany and India.He said that with double effects that hit almost every corner of the global economy, the White House estimated the total losses around the world at more than $ 10 billion.
He explained that the risk of cyberspace is higher, but the risk of damage is much greater.He pointed out that Microsoft has already warned that it had discovered devastating harmful programs that were recently placed inside the Ukrainian computer networks.
He says that the lesson from Notpetya is that as soon as it is activated, this harmful program can spread beyond its intended goals..
In the end, the writer called for the necessity of a collective defense approach to create a radar -like image of cyber space, which enables multiple teams to confront enemies immediately.He said that instead of fighting 10 people alone against the groups of Russia -backed Internet criminals, there are 1000 security professionals who meet together as soon as any of them is threatened.
