Saied wins new term as Tunisian president
PRESIDENT Kais Saied has won a landslide victory in Tunisia’s election.
The win on Sunday keeps Mr Saied in power after a first term where opponents were imprisoned and the country’s institutions overhauled to give him more authority.
Tunisia’s election authorities said Mr Saied received 90.7 per cent of the vote in a low 28.8 per cent turnout.
