The Shuraya Party (Syriac: ܫܘܖܝܐ Arabic: حزب شوريا) is a political organisation that represents the Christian Assyrian community in Lebanon since the late 1970s. The party advocates the formation of an independent Assyrian State in the Assyrian homeland, in what is today Northern Iraq. The term "shuraya" means 'beginning'.
