The Chaldean Syriac Assyrian Popular Council (CSAPC, Syriac: ܡܘܬܒܐ ܥܡܡܝܐ ܟܠܕܝܐ ܣܘܪܝܝܐ ܐܬܘܪܝܐMotḇā ʿammāyā kaldāyā suryāyā āṯurāyā, Arabic: المجلس الشعبي الكلداني السرياني الآشوريal-Majlis al-Shaʿbi al-Kaldāni al-Suriyāni al-Āshuri), popularly known as Motwa, is a political party in Iraq, that was founded in 2007, on the initiative of Sarkis Aghajan, a high-ranking member of the Kurdistan Democratic Party. As a party that represents minority communities, CSAPC participated in several elections, both on national, regional and local levels, mainly in various coalitions with other minority parties. The current president of the party is Jameel Zaito.[1]
The party was established in order to represent political interests of Christian minority communities in Iraq. Attempting to overcome internal divisions among those communities, the party was founded under a complex name, that refers to Chaldeans (adherents of the Chaldean Catholic Church), Syriacs (adherents of the Syriac Orthodox Church) and Assyrians (adherents of the Assyrian Church of the East). One of the main goals of CSAPC is to achieve administrative self-government or outright autonomy for the Nineveh Plains, a northern Iraqi region with high concentration of Christian population. The party claims the majority of the population in the Nineveh Plains suffers neglect and lack of service because they belong to minority groups, whose rights are not fully observed.[2][3][4][5]
The Party runs Ishtar TV and publishes several different monthly magazines.
The party is closely affiliated with the Kurdistan Democratic Party, and is mostly funded by Nechirvan Barzani.
On July 22, 2023 the party joined the Athra Alliance, a political alliance representing Assyrian–Chaldean–Syriac interests in Iraq.
