Greek term or phrase: αντιμαχόμενες πολιτικές ομάδες
... μπορεί να συνενώσει τα πολιτικά κόμματα και όλες τις αντιμαχόμενες πολιτικές ομάδες και να εγγυηθεί την αυτονομία στις εθνικές μειονότητες ώστε να υπάρξει κάποτε ... μια δημοκρατική, δικαστική και πολιτική αλλαγή.

I'd like to make sure about this: do you understand this as "opposing political groups" (i.e. opposing each other), or are they "opposition groups" (opposing the ruling regime)?
Thanks
