Partido Nuevo Triunfo (New Triumph Party) was a small far-right and Neo-Nazi political party in Argentina banned on 17 March 2009 through a ruling by the Argentine Supreme Court of Justice. [1]

Contents

Origins

The party was formed by Alejandro Biondini in 1990 as the Partido Nacionalista de los Trabajadores (Nationalist Worker's Party), initially as a breakaway from the Justicialist Party. [2] The party leader anticipated economic crisis in the country which he felt would set up the basis for a takeover by revolutionary nationalism. [3] Biondini is a veteran of the international neo-Nazi scene, having established a group called Alerta Nacional in 1984, which he described as 'a small part of the great worldwide socialist movement'. This group attempted to form links between the country's various extreme right groups. [4]

Development

The party was re-launched as the New Triumph Party in November 1997, identifying itself as 'the political, militant and electoral expression of Argentine national socialism'. [5] At a time when use of the internet by fringe political groups was limited but growing in popularity the New Triumph Party's online publication Libertad de Opinión (Freedom of Opinion) broke new ground in Argentina by providing a regular forum for Argentine neo-Nazism and anti-Semitism. [5] Ricardo Brinzoni was briefly associated with the group as his lawyer Juan Enrique Torres Bande was a member. [6]

The party has consistently attempted to gain legal recognition but has been rejected. [2] Nonetheless, in the 2005 Argentine legislative election Biondini's wife and son, members of the party, stood as candidates for Acción Ciudadana, a group headed by Jorge Colotto, the general commissioner of the Policía Federal Argentina. [7]

Ideology

The party supports Neo-Nazism and seeks to use Argentina as the new Nazi base. It has been claimed that Biondini believes that Adolf Hitler had identified Argentina as the future of Nazism. He has claimed that in the final days in the Führerbunker Hitler pointed to Argentina on a map and stated that 'from there the new leader will come'. [2]

The party has also been vocal in its criticism of the major political parties and leaders, denouncing Fernando de la Rúa as a puppet of the Zionist Occupation Government, a conspiracy theory. [2] As part of this rhetoric it also emphasises its grounding in Christianity. [8]

Platform

The ideas of the party have been summed up by them in declaration of policies which states five aims for the Argentine people. These are listed as:

The Movimiento Nacionalista Tacuara was an Argentine far right orthodox peronist and fascist movement from 1955 through the 1960s, which later integrated Juan Perón's right-wing "Special Formations". Linked to the more radical sectors of the Peronist movement, and directly inspired by Julio Meinvielle's Catholic pronouncements, Tacuara defended nationalist, Catholic, anti-liberal, anti-communist, antisemitic and anti-democratic ideas, and had as its first model the Spaniard Primo de Rivera's fascist Falange. In the years 1960–66, the movement incorporated Neo Nazi elements. Its main leaders were Alberto Ezcurra Medrano, José Luis "Joe" Baxter, Oscar Denovi, and Eduardo Rosa. Various ideologically contradictory movements emerged from this group. After three important splits in the early 1960s, the police cracked down on most factions in March 1964. A year later, the entire MNT was outlawed by President Arturo Illia (UCR). Composed of young people from right-wing backgrounds, it has been called the "first urban guerrilla group in Argentina".
