Alliance 90 (Bündnis 90) was an alliance of three non-Communist political groups in East Germany. It merged with the German Green Party in 1993 to form Bündnis 90/Die Grünen.

Bündnis 90 was formed in February 1990 by Neues Forum, Demokratie Jetzt and the Initiative Freiheit und Menschenrechte. It received 2.9% of the vote in the 1990 Volkskammer elections. For the first all-German elections it formed a joint list with the East German Green Party. It was this coalition that merged with the West German Green Party in 1993.
