  1. Latvian National Independence Movement

    Politics of Latvia The Latvian National Independence Movement Latvijas Nacion l s Neatkar bas Kust ba or LNNK was a political organization in Latvia from 1988 till mid 1990s. It formed in 1988, as the radical wing of Latvian nationalist movement. Unlike the mainstream Tautas Fronte Latvian Popular Front which originally supported more autonomy for Latvia within Soviet Union , LNNK insisted on independence from Soviet Union from its beginning. The leaders of LNNK included Eduards Berklavs , Aleksandrs Kir teins , Andrejs Krasti , Einars Rep e and Juris Dobelis . After Latvia gaining independence, LNNK became a political party and renamed itself National Conservative Party . It won 15 seats out of 100 in Latvian parliamentary election, 1993 1993 parliamentary election and was an influential opposition party. In 1993 its candidate for Prime Minister was Joachim Siegerist , who lost by only one vote and ended up second. LNNK won the municipal election in Latvian capital, Riga in 1994 but its popularity quickly faded after that. It lost half of its seats in the parliament in Latvian parliamentary election, 1995 1995 parliamentary election and eventually merged with T vzemei un Br v bai Fatherland and Freedom , another right wing party with similar origins in the Latvian independence movement.
