Third Way (Catalan: Tercera Via) is a conservative[1] political party in Andorra formed by the Lauredian Union and former members of the Liberal Party. The party is led by Josep Pintat Forné.

History[edit]

The party was founded at the end of 2018 to contest the 2019 general election. The party is formed mainly by the Sant Julià de Lòria-based Lauredian Union and members of the Liberal Party who left the party in 2017. It received support from the Virtus Unita Fortior group, as well.[2]

The former premier Albert Pintat ran as a candidate in the 2019 election and supported the party.

In the 2019 election, the party received the 10.4% of the volts and obtained 4 seats in the General Council, becoming the fourth strongest political party in Andorra.

Third Way is contesting the 2019 local elections in 5 out of 7 parishes.[3]
