Mediterranean Games in Bari (Italy)
This broadcast celebrates Tunisia's participation in the 13th Mediterranean Games held in Bari, Italy. The illustration shows two athletes in action — an outstretched tennis player and a runner — flying over a map of the Mediterranean basin. We also see the games logo (three rings representing Africa, Asia and Europe) and a stylized mascot.
The Mediterranean Games are a major historic event for Tunisia, which often shines there. The stamp exalts the values of healthy competition and fraternity between the peoples of the “White Sea area”, reaffirming the role of sport as a vector of diplomacy and rapprochement between the northern and southern shores of the Mediterranean.
