The Nasserist Socialist Vanguard Party (Arabic: الحزب الطليعي الاشتراكي الناصري) is a Nasserist political party in Iraq. It is led by Mowaffaq al-Ani. It adheres to Nasserist ideology, based on the legacy of Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser, promoting Arab unity, secularism, anti-imperialism, and Arab socialism.
The NSVP has not been involved in violence, corruption, or sectarian rhetoric and remains a marginal political force despite its controversial calls for military-led transitional rule. Although sometimes labeled a Sunni party due to its leadership's Iraqi Sunni Arab background and support base, the NSVP explicitly rejects sectarianism and positions itself as a secular, Pan-Arab Iraqi nationalist alternative to sectarian and Islamist groups.
