Peruvian Communist Party (Red Flag) (in Spanish: Partido Comunista Peruano (Bandera Roja)), was a communist party in Peru founded in 1964 following a split in the Peruvian Communist Party. PCP(BR) sided with China and Maoism in the Sino-Soviet split. Leaders included Saturnino Paredes, José Sotomayor and future Shining Path founder Abimael Guzmán, who formed his own organization as a splinter from this party. PCP(BR) participated in the 1978 elections, on the lists of FOCEP.
