The Mongolian National Democratic Party (Mongolian: Монгол Үндэсний Ардчилсан Нам, abbreviated МҮАН or MNDP), known until 2011 as the New National Party (Mongolian: Үндэсний Шинэ Нам, ҮШН), is a political party in Mongolia, that was established in 2006.
History
The party was headed by Mendsaikhany Enkhsaikhan, a former Prime Minister of Mongolia from 7 July 1996 to 23 April 1998. In 2016, he resigned as party leader and succeeded the role to party secretary Bayanjargalyn Tsogtgerel.
Justice Coalition
The party formed a parliamentary coalition called Justice Coalition with the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party, a party established in 2010.
The coalition won 11 out of 76 seats in the State Great Khural during the 2012 parliamentary elections. The Justice Coalition formed a coalition government with the Democratic Party after the 2012 elections. The gradual breakup of the Justice Coalition in May 2016 between the MNDP and MPRP members of parliament led to a majority of the MNDP MPs joining the DP.[2] The MNDP didn't participate in the 2016 elections but instead formally supported the DP.[3][4]
For the 2020 parliamentary elections, the MNDP was a part of a broad political coalition called the New Coalition that included many extra-parliamentary parties such as the Mongolian Republican Party, Citizens' Coalition for Justice Party, and Truth and Right Party.[5] The coalition came in 4th, received 5.35% of the total vote, but failed to win any seats in the State Great Khural.
In December 2022, the MNDP merged into the DP,[6] but this merger was not accepted by the Supreme Court, and therefore, the party was not officially deregistered.[7] Many party members, including former chairman Enkhsaikhan, joined the DP.
National Coalition
In the 2024 parliamentary election, the MNDP became a founding member of the National Coalition alongside the Mongolian Green Party.[8] The coalition, led by former Mongolian People's Party member Nyamtaishiryn Nomtoibayar, won 4 out of 126 seats in the newly expanded State Great Khural. However, no MNDP party members were elected into office.[9]
