The Solidarity Party of Afghanistan (Dari: حزب همبستگی افغانستان; Hezb-e Hambastagi-ye Afghanistan; abbr. SPA) is a minor left-wing political party in Afghanistan.[4] The party platform focuses on four main issues: labourism, secularism, women's rights, democracy, and opposition to NATO's Resolute Support Mission in Afghanistan.[5] The party is strongly critical of the Afghan government, which it views as corrupt, fundamentalist, and dominated by warlords.[5] The party claims a membership of some 30,000.[5]
