The European Republicans Movement (Italian: Movimento Repubblicani Europei, MRE) is a minor social-liberal[2] political party in Italy.

From 2007 to 2010 the party was a founding member and associate of the Democratic Party, the leading centre-left party in Italy. In 2011 the MRE was merged into the Italian Republican Party, the party from which it had seceded in 2001. The MRE was also a member of the pan-European European Liberal Democrat and Reform Party (ELDR),[3] and its long-standing leader was Luciana Sbarbati.
