The party proposed to reject Georgia's prospective NATO membership by enshrining "non-bloc status" and military neutrality in the constitution.

To this end, the party's leader Nino Burjanadze visited the Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow several times, the most recently in 2019.

While the party supported enhancing cooperation with the European Union, it considered the Georgia's proposed EU membership only theoretical and long-term objective.
