The National Democratic Alternative (Serbian Cyrillic: Национално демократска алтернатива, romanized: Nacionalno demokratska alternativa, abbr. NADA, transl. hope) is a national-conservative political coalition in Serbia, composed of the New Democratic Party of Serbia (NDSS) and Movement for the Restoration of the Kingdom of Serbia (POKS).

History[edit]

It was initially formed as a joint political platform between the two parties in January 2021,[5] although in May, it was expanded into a political coalition.[6] It is now made up of more than 20 citizens' associations.[7] Matija Bećković and Ljubinko Đurković expressed their support to the coalition.[8] Its presidential candidate for the 2022 election was Miloš Jovanović,[9] while its ballot carrier for the parliamentary election was retired general Božidar Delić.[10]

On 28 January 2022, Together for Šumadija, a minor political party from Kragujevac, joined the coalition.[11]

Political positions[edit]

It opposes the legalisation of the same sex civil unions,[12][13] supports a proposal for the adoption of a declaration of support to Republika Srpska,[14] and supports the restoration of the monarchy.[15] In September 2021, they presented their program for the upcoming elections.[16] They voiced their opposition to the 2022 constitutional referendum.[17]
