Minoría Vasco-Navarra (English: Basque-Navarrese Minority) was a right-wing parliamentary grouping in the Spanish Cortes during the term of 1931–1933. It was composed of 15 deputies and had no tangible impact on politics of the Republic. However, it matters in history of Basque nationalism and Carlism.
The alliance won 15 mandates out of 470; Minoría Vasco-Navarra became one of the smallest parliamentary groups in the chamber. Its chairman was Joaquín Beunza Redín, the deputy chairman was José Antonio Aguirre. Its key objectives were 1) restraining belligerent secularisation of public life, promoted by centre-left; and 2) creating an autonomous region, which would consist of 4 provinces in question.
In practical terms the Basque-Carlist alliance broke up in June 1932, when during works on autonomy the mayors from Carlist-dominated Navarre rejected the scheme. At this point PNV leaders concluded that alliance with the Traditionalists offered no gains and Minoría Vasco-Navarra became a rather formal arrangement, maintained only for the sake of some technical benefits, enjoyed by parliamentary groupings in the Cortes. There was no attempt to re-create the alliance during the electoral campaign of 1933.
