The National Salvation Front was an electoral alliance in Tunisia, made up of multiple political parties.[1][2] The alliance includes the Union for Tunisia and Popular Front coalitions.[2] The Republican Party left the Union for Tunisia alliance on 30 December 2013, though it remains part of the National Salvation Front.[3] After the compromise with Ennahda which resulted in a technocratic government instead of an anti-Ennahda government, the front appears to have splintered between right-wing secularists and left-wing secularists.[citation needed]
