Its immediate goal is the establishment of a Pays Basque département out of Pyrénées-Atlantiques. In terms of ideology, besides Basque nationalist, it is a leftist political party. AB neither justifies nor condemns the violence of ETA, calling instead to a truce. ETA has scolded AB for this lack of support from what is seen as a friendly organization.
