The National Liberation Movement (French: Mouvement de Libération Nationale, MLN) was a left-wing[1] political party in Burkina Faso.
The party was originally established by Joseph Ki-Zerbo in Dakar in Senegal in August 1958.
Ki-Zerbo founded the party in order to campaign for a "no" vote in the constitutional referendum in September.
[2] In 1970 Ki-Zerbo re-established the party to run in the parliamentary elections that year.
It received 11% of the vote and won 6 of the 57 seats in the National Assembly.
