The Right Romania Alliance (Romanian: Alianţa România Dreaptă, ARD, also translating to "Just Romania Alliance") was a Romanian electoral alliance formed between the Democratic Liberal Party, the National Peasant Christian-Democratic Party, the Civic Force and supported by the Centre-Right Civic Initiative founded by former PM Mihai Răzvan Ungureanu and other NGOs.
After a very short period of existence, lasting a little over 3 months, the alliance was legally dissolved on the background of the disastrous results in the legislative elections, as it was not a political, but only electoral alliance.
In July 2012, former Prime Minister Mihai Razvan Ungureanu formed the Centre-Right Civic Initiative (ICCD). He said that he support a political alliance for the parliamentary election of 2012. Representatives of the Democratic Liberal Party (PDL), in opposition, began negotiations with the ICCD, the New Republic Party (PNR), National Peasant Christian-Democratic Party (PNŢCD) and the Christian Democratic Foundation (DCF). PDL leader Vasile Blaga announced that the negotiations were successful.
On August 30, representatives of PDL, ICCD, PNŢCD, PNR and FCD launched The Manifest of the Unite Right, that created the alliance. On September 5, the PNŢCD chairman, Aurelian Pavelescu announced that leaders determined that pole will b named Right Romania Alliance and the logo will be a heart. On 7 September, the National Convention of Civic Force (FC) elected Ungureanu as party leader. FC joined the alliance, replacing the ICCD (which is just an NGO).
