Coalition Of Forces For Democratic Change
The Coalition of Forces for Democratic Change (CFDC) (french: Coalition des Forces de Changements Démocratique) was an electoral coalition in Mauritania. The Coalition was founded on 28 June 2006 by ten Mauritanian political parties, following Mauritania's "return to democracy" after the 2005 Mauritanian coup d'état. The main aims of the coalition were to prevent the elections of politicians who had served under former President Maaouya Ould Sid'Ahmed Taya, and also to cut Mauritania's diplomatic ties with Israel, with one of the Coalitions first actions being to organize a pro-Palestinian rally in Nouakchott. Most of the parties were former members of the Bloc of Eight electoral coalition.
