History

The party was established as the Labour Union (Uniunea Muncii) on 25 September 1999, and was registered on 12 November that year. [1] In 2001, the party joined the Braghiş Alliance, an electoral alliance set up by Prime Minister Dumitru Braghiș to contest the 2001 parliamentary elections. [2] The Alliance won 19 seats in the elections, emerging as the second-largest faction in Parliament behind the Party of Communists of the Republic of Moldova, which won 71 seats. [3]

Prior to the 2005 parliamentary elections, the party was renamed Labour Union Party "Fatherland". [4] It ran alone in the elections, but received only 0.9% of the vote and failed to win a seat. [1] The party also failed to win a seat in the 2007 local elections, [1] and did not contest the two parliamentary elections in 2009. The party returned to run in the 2010 parliamentary elections, but received just 875 votes (0.05%) and failed to win a seat. However, it did win six seats (0.06% of the total) in the 2011 local elections. [1]
