The head of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) said in the wee hours of Monday that external forces seeking to implement shady machinations over Turkey failed in the March 31 local elections.
Speaking at his party's headquarters in the country's capital of Ankara, Devlet Bahçeli delivered remarks on the preliminary results of the election.
"The Turkish nation put tremendous support behind country's unity and survival," Bahçeli said.
"Elections are now past and Turkey has replenished its hope. It is of crucial importance to focus on worsening social and economic issues along with international challenges," he said.
Bahçeli underlined that the "economic hitmen, currency gangs, terrorist groups and intentions" lost hope before the will of the nation and got the answer "they deserved".
Earlier on Sunday, millions of Turkish voters cast their ballots in local elections to choose Turkey's mayors, city council members, mukhtars (neighborhood officials), and members of elder councils for the next five years.
