Fédération Régions et Peuples Solidaires

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fédération Régions et Peuples Solidaires is a political federation of various regionalist parties (particularly of centre-left affiliation) in France. It was founded in 1995, in order to organise a coordinated combat against "Parisian centrism" and "Jacobin conception of peoples" on the French state level. Its president is Gustave Alirol, the chairman of Partit Occitan. The federation has ties with the European Free Alliance (although it is not a member) and is active in campaigning. However, their electoral presence in France is negligible.
