The statement added: I would like to inform you that Hassan Shakoush came to Tunisia to work in a private party, and the contractor who was the intermediary for this party did not complete all the administrative matters that would allow him to obtain a work permit in the Tunisian Republic. Despite this serious violation of the law by the artist and the contractor, they were allowed to enter Tunisia despite not presenting the legal permits to work.

The statement added: We are certain that such an incident has not and will not affect the relations between the two brotherly countries, popularly, politically and especially artistically. Hassan Shakoush does not represent the beloved Egyptian people, but rather represents himself only. Therefore, the Tunisian Union of Musical Professions and Related Professions demands an immediate and unconditional apology from Hassan Shakoush, as he is a registered member of the Egyptian Union of Musical Professions. You know how Tunisia has always opened its arms with great love to all Arab artists, especially Egyptians.
