Union of Islamic Iran People Party[lower-alpha 1] (Persian: حزب اتحاد ملت ایران اسلامی‎‎) is an Iranian reformist political party founded in 2015.[4]

Establishment

In January 2015, it was confirmed by the Ministry of Interior that it has received a request for a permit to establish a new political party. The reformists carried out some six similar initiatives for party formation in the past six months.[6] It was officially given permission on April 20, 2015.[2]

Members

Most members of the party are former members of Islamic Iran Participation Front, banned in 2009.[1] The party was accused of being a "front" for the banned Islamic Iran Participation Front,[2][5] which was tacitly denied by the party.[3]

Central council of the party consists of 30 members, including Gholamreza Ansari, Hamidreza Jalaeipour, Fatemeh Rakeei and Jalal Jalalizadeh. Emadaddin Khatami, son of Mohammad Khatami is also a member.[7]

Elections

The party intends to take part in the Iranian legislative election, 2016.[1]
