The Sandinista Renovation Movement (Movimiento Renovador Sandinista or MRS, in Spanish) is a Nicaraguan political party founded on 21 May 1995.[1] It defines itself as a democratic and progressive party, made of people of all genders, that promotes the construction of a Nicaragua with opportunities, progress, solidarity, democracy, and sovereignty.[citation needed]
Among its founders were prominent militants of the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN) who separated from the political party because of disagreements with the leadership under Daniel Ortega. These include former vice president Sergio Ramírez, who served as the first president of the MRS, Dora María Téllez, Luis Carrión Cruz, Luis Felipe Pérez Caldera, Leonor Arguello, Reynaldo Antonio Téfel,[citation needed] and Herty Lewites, who was the presidential candidate of the MRS until his sudden death four months prior to the election.
In 2016 the MRS joined the Progressive Alliance,[citation needed] an international organization of labor, social democrats, left parties, organisations and movements from around the world.
The MRS has been renamed Unión Democrática Renovadora- Unamos in 2021.[2]
