The '''National Alliance of Workers, Farmers, University Students and Reservists''' ({{langx|es|Alianza Nacional de Trabajadores, Agricultores, Universitarios, Reservistas y Obreros}}, '''ANTAURO'''), or just the '''National Alliance''' ({{langx|es|Alianza Nacional}}) was a Peruvian political party. Founded in 2023, it is led by Antauro Humala, leader of the Ethnocacerist movement.<ref name=":0">{{cite news |date=11 January 2023 |title=Antauro Humala presenta firmas ante el Jurado Nacional de Elecciones para inscribir nuevo partido político - Caretas Política |url=https://caretas.pe/politica/antauro-humala-presenta-firmas-ante-el-jurado-nacional-de-elecciones-para-inscribir-nuevo-partido-politico/ |access-date=19 January 2023 |newspaper=Caretas |language=es |archive-date=19 January 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230119182057/https://caretas.pe/politica/antauro-humala-presenta-firmas-ante-el-jurado-nacional-de-elecciones-para-inscribir-nuevo-partido-politico/ |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref name="EC131223">{{cite news |last=Calderón P. |first=Martín |date=13 December 2023 |title=El partido de Antauro Humala logra su inscripción en el JNE |url=https://www.pressreader.com/peru/diario-el-comercio/20231213/page/1/textview |language=es |newspaper=El Comercio |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref>
== History == Following the 2021 general election, Union for Peru (UPP) lost its political registration, leaving the Ethnocacerism without a political vehicle.<ref>{{cite news |date=9 September 2021 |title=Los históricos Partido Aprista y PPC pierden su inscripción oficial en Perú |url=https://www.swissinfo.ch/spa/per%C3%BA-pol%C3%ADtica_los-hist%C3%B3ricos-partido-aprista-y-ppc-pierden-su-inscripci%C3%B3n-oficial-en-per%C3%BA/46935698 |access-date=19 January 2023 |newspaper=Swissinfo.ch |language=es}}</ref> On 20 August 2022, the leader of the movement, Antauro Humala, was released from prison after 15 years imprisoned due to the ''Andahuaylazo.'' He recognized his plans to register two parties in order to compete in the upcoming presidential election: the United Revolutionary Ethnocacerist Party (PERU) and the ANTAURO itself.<ref>{{cite news |last=Fowks |first=Jacqueline |date=6 January 2022 |title=Antauro Humala recorre Perú haciendo campaña: "El poder deben ejercerlo los de piel cobriza" |url=https://elpais.com/internacional/2022-09-06/antauro-humala-recorre-peru-haciendo-campana-el-poder-deben-ejercerlo-los-de-piel-cobriza.html |access-date=19 January 2023 |newspaper=El País |language=es}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{cite news |last=Chillitupa |first=Rodrigo |date=22 September 2022 |title=Antauro Humala apuesta por regresar a la Constitución de 1979 para aplicar la pena capital a los expresidentes |url=https://www.infobae.com/america/peru/2022/09/22/antauro-humala-apuesta-por-regresar-a-la-constitucion-de-1979-para-aplicar-la-pena-capital-a-los-expresidentes/ |access-date=31 January 2023 |newspaper=Infobae |language=es}}</ref> On 11 January 2023 he submitted the required signatures to register the party.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite news |last=Rodriguez |first=Viviana |date=11 January 2023 |title=ANTAURO HUMALA CREA PARTIDO Y SE LANZA A LA CARRERA PRESIDENCIAL |work=Sudaca |url=https://sudaca.pe/noticia/entrevistas/viviana-rodriguez-antauro-humala-crea-partido-y-se-lanza-a-la-carrera-presidencial/ |access-date=31 January 2023}}</ref>
In September 2023, a private citizen filed a challenge against the imminent registration of the ANTAURO, contending that its leader, Humala, praises the Revolutionary Junta of Juan Velasco Alvarado and supports terrorism, thereby posing a threat to Peruvian democracy. However, on 7 December 2023, the National Jury of Elections (JNE) dismissed the complaint, asserting that Humala did not officially hold any leadership position within the party.<ref>{{cite news |last=Muñoz |first=Daniel |date=7 December 2023 |title=Antauro Humala: JNE resuelve tacha a favor de inscripción de partido que lleva nombre del líder etnocacerista |url=https://larepublica.pe/politica/2023/12/07/antauro-humala-jne-admite-inscripcion-de-partido-que-lleva-nombre-del-lider-etnocacerista-dnrop-mdga-139125 |language=es |newspaper=La República |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref> Ultimately, the ANTAURO was registered on 12 December 2023 with Marco Antonio Vizcarra, another participant in the ''Andahuaylazo'', as the president and former UPP congressman Rubén Ramos Zapata as the legal official.<ref>{{cite news |last=Mc Cubbin |first=Ricardo |date=8 September 2023 |title=¿Cuáles son los partidos vinculados a Antauro Humala y Guillermo Bermejo en busca de inscripción? |url=https://larepublica.pe/politica/actualidad/2023/09/08/cuales-son-los-partidos-vinculados-a-antauro-humala-y-guillermo-bermejo-en-busca-de-inscripcion-jurado-nacional-de-elecciones-rop-471040 |language=es |newspaper=La República |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last=Pajares Herrada |first=Diego |date=12 December 2023 |title=Partido político A.N.T.A.U.R.O fue inscrito en el Registro de Organizaciones Políticas del JNE |url=https://rpp.pe/politica/elecciones/antauro-humala-partido-politico-antauro-fue-inscrito-por-el-jurado-nacional-de-elecciones-noticia-1521912 |newspaper=RPP |language=es |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref>
Amid widespread concern regarding the party's registration, Prime Minister Alberto Otárola declared his intention to request authorities to investigate the party's ideology, aiming to determine its commitment to democratic principles.<ref>{{cite news |date=11 December 2023 |title=Otárola sobre grupo de Antauro Humala: "Vamos a pedir que se revise la ideología del partido" |url=https://elcomercio.pe/politica/gobierno/alberto-otarola-se-pedira-la-revision-de-la-ideologia-de-la-agrupacion-politica-vinculada-a-antauro-humala-jne-jurado-nacional-de-elecciones-ultimas-noticia/ |language=es |newspaper=El Comercio |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref> Additionally, Congressman Carlos Anderson proposed legislation to prohibit individuals convicted of homicide from assuming the presidency in Peru, a measure designed to preempt any potential presidential candidacy by Humala in the forthcoming 2026 Presidential election.<ref name="LR101223">{{cite news |last=Quispe Sánchez |first=Diego |date=10 December 2023 |title=Antauro Humala, controversia por su candidatura y la bukelización de su campaña |url=https://larepublica.pe/politica/actualidad/2023/12/10/antauro-sobre-liberacion-de-fujimori-el-tc-complice-ha-convalidado-un-indulto-mafiosamente-143300 |language=es |newspaper=La República |access-date=13 December 2023}}</ref>
== Ideology == {{Main|Ethnocacerism}} The party's acronym is named after its leader, which has led to the party be deemed as a surrogate, which has been rejected by Humala.<ref name=":1" /><ref>{{cite news |last=Peris |first=Guillermo |date=28 October 2022 |title=A.N.T.A.U.R.O. y el etnocacerismo |language=es |newspaper=Diario Siglo XXI |url=http://www.diariosigloxxi.com/texto-diario/mostrar/4051595/antauro-etnocacerismo |access-date=31 January 2023}}</ref> The party's main ideology is ethnocacerism, which mixes racial superiority of the 'copper skinned' with anti-Chilean rhetoric and has been described as a form of Andean fascism.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Palacios |first=Pamela |date=31 October 2022 |title=Michael Mendieta: "Antauro Humala y los etnocaceristas representan a un fascismo andino" |work=La República |url=https://larepublica.pe/politica/actualidad/2022/10/31/michael-mendieta-antauro-humala-y-los-etnocaceristas-representan-a-un-fascismo-andino-congreso |access-date=31 January 2022}}</ref> Nevertheless, in January 2023, Antauro Humala was denounced for praising the Peruvian communist guerrilla group Shining Path.<ref>{{Cite news |date=26 January 2023 |title=Procuraduría denuncia a Antauro Humala por apología al terrorismo por su frase sobre Sendero Luminoso |work=El Comercio |url=https://elcomercio.pe/politica/justicia/antauro-humala-es-denunciado-penalmente-por-el-delito-de-terrorismo-por-su-frase-sobre-sendero-luminoso-noticia/ |access-date=31 January 2023}}</ref>
The ANTAURO has strongly criticized the release of former President Alberto Fujimori, adopting an overtly Anti-Fujimorist rhetoric in its campaign. According to political analysts, Humala has recently sought to cast himself as the 'Peruvian Bukele', seemingly attempting to position himself as an authoritative leader.<ref name="LR101223"/> In its statute, the ANTAURO advocates for the restoration of the mandatory military service.<ref name="EC131223"/>
