Beji Caid Essebsi

Youssef Chahed
Nabil Karoui
Answer
In the 2019 Tunisian presidential election, Saied defeated Nabil Karoui, a media magnate and political outsider. Karoui had been arrested a month before the election on corruption charges, but was still allowed to run. The two candidates represented very different political views, with Saied promising to fight corruption and Karoui promising to improve the economy.
