Athra Alliance

The Athra Alliance is a political alliance of five political parties in Iraq that represent the Assyrian–Chaldean–Syriac people. The alliance comprises these five parties:
 * Assyrian Democratic Movement
 * Assyrian Patriotic Party
 * Beth Nahrin Patriotic Union
 * Chaldean Syriac Assyrian Popular Council
 * Sons of Mesopotamia

The alliance was formed around the same time that the Chaldean Patriarch Louis Raphaël I Sako moved the Patriarchal headquarters from Baghdad to Erbil, in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, following political tension between the Patriarch and the president of Iraq, Abdul Latif Rashid, in which the Iraqi presidency removed its official recognition of Louis Raphaël I Sako as the authority of the Chaldean Church. The Patriarch was warmly received by the president of the Kurdish region, Nechirvan Barzani, who reiterated the importance of Iraq including the Kurdistan Region to embrace all religious and ethnic communities, and expressed hope that the President of Iraq would resolve the issue soon.

One of the goals of the alliance is to gain more seats to represent the Assyrian–Chaldean–Syriac people in the next Iraqi provincial elections which are scheduled to be held on 18 December 2023.
