Batzarre (English: Assembly) is a

UPN government. It formed on 29 January 2011 the coalition Izquierda-Ezkerra along with Izquierda Unida
de Navarra (IUN) and local Socialist figures disillusioned with the party's regional alliances.

History

It formed out of the merger of EMK and LKI, the Basque branch of LCR. It started as a list of candidates in 1987 for the Navarrese Parliament election. In 1991, the party was formally established. It supported Herri Batasuna several times, e.g. in the 1989 Spanish general election, and in the European Parliament election, 1987 and 1989. In 1998, the party was one of the members of Euskal Herritarrok; however, it left the coalition after ETA broke the 1998 truce.

In 2004, Batzarre was one of the founding parties of the coalition Nafarroa Bai (Yes to Navarre), who earned them a seat in the Parliament of Navarre, held by Ioseba Eceolaza [eu]. However, internal frictions paved the way to the 2011 break-up of the coalition, and the establishment of a new progressive coalition, Izquierda-Ezkerra.
