ALGIERS, 14 June, 2021 (TON): On Sunday, Algeria’s main moderate the Movement of Society for Peace (MSP) in the country’s claimed victory in the early legislative elections.

The party also issued a warning against any attempts to tamper with the election outcome whose first results are still pending publication.

The party insisted, "We call on the President of the Republic (Abdelmadjid Tebboune) to respect the popular will."

However, the Independent National Authority for Elections -- without explicitly naming the MSP, has refuted the party’s perceived "unfounded" statements and might not reveal provisional results for several days after postponing the initial announcement on Saturday due to a complicated vote count.

However, MSP’s win confirmed, it will not be a surprise as some analysts already predicted a relative majority for the party.
