Source-derived summary

The Alliance for Peace and Freedom (APF) is a far-right European political alliance and former European political party founded on 4 February 2015. The main member parties were involved in the defunct European National Front.

The alliance wishes to establish a network of nationalist movements across Europe that will cooperate to strengthen their shared ideals. It cooperates and supports other nationalist groups across Europe that are not members, these include former party members Golden Dawn, Tricolour Flame, Alternative for Sweden and the ELAM. The alliance is described as neo-Nazi by several newspapers, and neo-fascist by others.

The group works for "a Europe of sovereign nations in which the independent states work together on a confederated basis", and for the perennity and the safeguarding of ancestral European traditions such as the Christian tradition.

Europa Terra Nostra

The Europa Terra Nostra is the official European political foundation of the APF. The ETN was founded 3 July 2015 in Berlin where it continues to operate as the official think-tank of the APF and serves as the European framework for national foundations/think-tanks recognised by APF member-parties.

International connections

The APF works to co-ordinate European nationalist parties across the continent. It helped establish the Italy for the Italians coalition composed of APF member New Force along with Tricolour Flame. In 2017 the APF aided in the formation of the National Identity Bloc in Europe coalition, APF members, United Romania Party and Noua Dreaptă joined forces with the Greater Romania Party. In 2019 The APF played a part in forming the ADÑ Identidad Española coalition, composed of APF member National Democracy, FE-JONS, Spanish Alternative and La Falange.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Alliance for Peace and Freedom” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Alliance, Peace and Freedom provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 29, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q19834410. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2015, 2017 and 2019.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
