FLN considered that the head of the party and the President of the Republic, is it’s candidate for the upcoming presidential elections, as long as it did not announce the opposite to the extent time, but on the other hand it started the preparation for other possibilities, similar to some of the parties, as FLN address the new bloc’s planned by Islamist parties which are intending to buildcoordination with national parties, in order to agree on the person to run with it’s name in the coming presidential elections, as thiscoincides with the campaign of support that was launched for the benefit of some figures, including former Secretary General of the National Liberation Front, Abdelaziz Belkhadem, who was a pioneer in the detection of his intention to advance to the presidentialrace, but connect it with not nominating the president Bouteflika for a fourth term, which, according to some close source, he receives every day his supporters at his residence in the capital Algiers.

Belkhadem received sustained visits by unusual guests, because they are not juts ordinary adherents in the party, who want to push Belkhadm to ascend the Mouradia chair, but they are public trustees for a number of cities, and work at the same time assenators in the National Assembly and deputies in the parliament, and who took the initiative to form committees of support at the regional level for the benefit of FLN’s former Secretary General, but without announcing it, but his candidacy will face opposition byhis opponents in the party, who were behind the withdrawal of confidence from him. In this contxt, a politburo member of the party,Abdelhamid Si Afif, told Echorouk thwith filtered told iz Bouteflika, to run for a fourth term, unless he will refuse, claiming that FLN is in line with morality and logic, calling those who open the elections’ file before the honorary president of the party said his last word, are traffickers, in allusion to Belkhadem and Amar Saadani, whose movements begun to appear on the ground.

The speaker ruled out the idea that FLN’s candidate will participate inthe upcoming elections, “because his chances will be few”,under the pretext of the circumstances of the party since disqualification of Belkhadem, saying: “In the current circumstances one party can not present it’s candidate for victory. Creation of a pole featuring what is called National Advanced Party is important, through compatibility with parties of the Patriotic Movement for recommending certain personality. RND and Amara Ben Younesand Amar Ghoul parties. Alliance will not include the Islamic parties, because we are not in the opposition, for the fact that MSPthat sponsors the initiative is not alone, after the head of the party for Justice and Development Front Abdellah Djaballah joined it,despite he is known for his opposition to the regime.
