Assyrian National Congress
The Assyrian National Congress (ANC) is a political organization representing the Assyrian ethnic community, primarily in the Middle East. Founded in the early 2000s, the ANC advocates for the rights, recognition, and self-determination of Assyrians, who are an ancient Christian minority in countries like Iraq, Syria, and Iran. The congress seeks to address issues like community protection, cultural preservation, and political representation, especially in light of historical persecutions and current challenges faced by Assyrians in their homeland. Through advocacy and political efforts, the ANC aims to promote Assyrian identity and influence policies affecting their community.
