On 22 March 2023, former PSRM deputies Alexandr Nesterovschi, Irina Lozovan, Vasile Bolea and Alexandr Suhodolschi joined the party. Bolea declared that the party promotes the values of Eastern Orthodox Christianity, traditionalism, Moldovan nationalism, and that the party wants to become the largest left-wing force of Moldova. The party also wants the Russian language to become one of the state languages of Moldova. It has been considered a satellite party of the Șor Party since around this time.[7] [8]
