The Victory Alliance (Arabic: ائتلاف النصر, translit. iʾtilāf al-naṣr), is an Islamist Iraqi political alliance established by Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi.[3][4]

History

The alliance was founded on 14 December 2017 by Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi. Although a coalition was initially created between the Conquest Alliance and the Victory Alliance, (named Victory for Iraq), on 15 January the Conquest Alliance withdrew because they would not have gained as many seats and some groups involved in the Victory Alliance were alleged to be involved in corruption.[5]
