Rached Ghannouchi (Arabic: راشد الغنوشي, romanized: Rāshid al-Ghannūshī; born 22 June 1941[1]), also spelled Rachid al-Ghannouchi or Rached el-Ghannouchi, is a Tunisian politician,[2] the co-founder of the Ennahdha Party and serving as its intellectual leader.[3] He was born Rashad Khriji (راشد الخريجي).[4]
Ghannouchi was named one of Time's 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2012[5] and Foreign Policy's Top 100 Global Thinkers[6] and was awarded the Chatham House Prize in 2012 (alongside Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki) by Prince Andrew, Duke of York, for "the successful compromises each achieved during Tunisia's democratic transition".[7][8] In 2016, he received the Jamnalal Bajaj Award for "promoting Gandhian values outside India".[9] On 13 November 2019, Ghannouchi was elected Speaker of the Assembly of the Representatives of the People.[10] Ghannouchi narrowly survived a vote of no confidence after 97 MPs voted against him on 30 July 2020, falling short of 109 needed to oust him as Speaker of the House.[11]
