National Centrist Party (Arabic: التيار الوطني الوسطي) is a parliamentary political party in Libya, launched by former interim oil minister, Ali Tarhouni, on 23 October 2011.
It is a centrist political movement, with bases on democracy and religious moderation.
Ali Tarhouni, the founder and leader of the NCP, declared in an interview with Libya Herald: "Moderation is the name of our movement.
We grew up in this country and we basically don’t practice these things that they do and I hope that they stop because Libya does not really condone that.
