Republic (Slovak: Republika) is a far-right[2] political party in Slovakia, led by Milan Uhrík.[3]
It was founded in March 2021 by Uhrík and a group of former members of Marian Kotleba's far-right People's Party Our Slovakia (ĽSNS). Instead of filing a completely new party (which would require the collection of 10,000 supporters' signatures), they took over and renamed the existing "Voice of the People" (Slovak: Hlas Ľudu) party led by Peter Marček,[4] which had just 50 members in 2018.[5] Due to defection of former ĽSNS representatives, the party has five seats in the Slovak National Council. Milan Uhrík himself is a member of the European Parliament, elected for ĽSNS in 2019.
