The party was created after disagreements with Democratic Party (DIKO) leader Nikolas Papadopoulos with regard to the approach the Greek Cypriot administration should take with regard to working to solve the Cyprus problem.[2] The party was admitted into the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE) on 18 November 2020.[3]
