Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist) of San Marino

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist) of San Marino (in Italian: Partito Comunista (Marxista-Leninista) di San Marino) was a pro-China communist party in San Marino. The party was founded in 1968 by the Marxist-Leninist Movement of San Marino (Movimento Marxista-Leninista di San Marino), which had been formed a few years earlier by dissidents of the San Marinese Communist Party.[1]

The party participated in the parliamentary elections in 1969 (obtaining 1.24% of the votes)[2] and in 1974 (121 votes, 0.8%)[3]. The party did however fail to win any seats.
