Movement for the Republic

The RdR was formed in 1992 by a splinter group, led by former Prime Minister Jan Olszewski, from the Centre Agreement.[1]

In the 1993 parliamentary election the RdR, in coalition with minor parties, won 2.7% of the vote and failed to elect any MPs. In 1995 most members of the party joined Olszewski's Movement for Reconstruction of Poland. In 1996–1997 the RdR briefly joined Solidarity Electoral Action.

In 1999 the RdR was merged with the Centre Agreement and the Party of Christian Democrats into the Polish Christian Democratic Agreement.
