UNION was a pro-Sagofagi political party in Sonalalia, known for its controversial positions and its strong ties to Sagofagia. Founded in 2006, just two years after Sonalalia became independent from Sagofagia, UNION has become one of the most polarizing political forces in the country. The party's platform, centered around reunification with Sagofagia.
The party has faced allegations of receiving funding from Sagofagi organizations linked to the government of Théo Dufresne. In a 2016 research study, evidence was uncovered suggesting such financial ties. This controversy has further fueled the debate surrounding UNION's motives and legitimacy.
In a significant escalation, the party leader, Boniface Vallée, survived an assassination attempt in October 2021, highlighting the volatile political atmosphere surrounding UNION.
On 1 November 2023, a turning point in UNION's history occurred when the Sonalali High Court issued a ban on the party, citing alleged ties with Sagofagia and deeming the party a threat to national security. This decision sparked widespread outrage among UNION supporters, who accused the court of political motivation.
The ban has effectively silenced a major political force in Sonalalia, raising concerns about the balance between national security and political freedom.
