Hungarian Federalist Party

The Hungarian Federalist Party (Hungarian Magyar Föderalista Párt) was a Slovakian political party defending the interests of the Hungarian minority in Slovakia. It was founded in 2000[1] as right-wing alternative to the compromise-friendly Party of the Hungarian Coalition.[2] It was backed by the World Federation of Hungarians. In 2003, it organized a protest with the World Federation of Hungarians and the Sixty-Four Counties Youth Movement.[3] It only contested in the 2004 European Parliament election,[4] where it received 0.22%.[2] It had a status of observer in the European Free Alliance until its disbanding in 2005 for a failed re-register alongside 86 other parties.[1][2]
