El Watania 2, also known as Télévision Tunisienne 2, is the second Tunisian public national television channel.

The French, who wanted to set up the relay for the second ORTF channel in Tunisia in 1966, came up against the refusal of Tunisian officials.

In 1969, ORTF officials agreed to finance the creation of a second French-speaking Tunisian channel, to fit out a studio at the RTT headquarters equipped with light technical means of transmission and to install four transmitters and repeaters around the capital, and in the north of the country.

Following President Ben Ali's triumphant re-election in 1999 (with over 99% of the vote), the French media, including France 2, strongly criticized the Tunisian government and punished the regime's lack of democracy.

After the fall of President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali on January 14, 2011, on the occasion of the Tunisian revolution, the channel changed its name again on January 20 to National Tunisian Television 2 (التلفزة التونسية ـ الوطنية 2) in Arabic and Télévision Tunisienne 2 in French.

From January 2, 2012, the channel changed register and adopted programming devoted to the regions; its broadcast then covers 17 hours a day.

These broadcasts included a daily program summarizing the main competitors and reporting on the athletes representing Tunisia, this was prepared by Rabii Bhouri and presented by Thouraya Majbri[2]
