 Document: Charter of the Iraqi National Accord
The Iraqi National Accord (I.N.A.) was established in 1990 to achieve a democratic pluralistic regime that respects human rights and lives peacefully with its citizens, neighbors and the whole world.

Supported by Iraqis inside and outside Iraq, some of those fugitives, united by a common goal, that is the removal of Saddam's regime, try to organize themselves in political groups.
