Italian Republican Party

The Italian Republican Party (Partito Repubblicano Italiano) is an old left liberal party in Italy, with roots to Giuseppe Mazzini. The party is a member of the European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party. The party decided to ally with Silvio Berlusconi's Casa delle Libertà (right-wing), but the congress that decided this new alliance has been cancelled by Italian justice as unfair. A left wing seceded as the European Republican Movement.
