The Assyrian Socialist Party (Syriac: Gaba Shawtapaya Atouraya),[a] abbreviated as ASP[2] or GSA,[3] is an Assyrian political party primarily active in Iraq. Its original incarnation, founded by Freydun Atturaya, Benjamin Arsanis and Baba Parhad in February 1917, was the first Assyrian political party[4][5] and possibly the first Assyrian national organization.[2] The Assyrian Socialist Party advocated for socialism and secularism, though was chiefly concerned with the idea of creating an independent Assyrian state in the Assyrian homeland.
The party, based on the same ideals as its first incarnation, was re-established by a group of Assyrian activists in 2002 and is presently headquartered in Baghdad. Branches of the Assyrian Socialist Party also exist in Syria, Iran, Turkey and Lebanon.
