Union of the Venetian People

Union of the Venetian People

The Union of the Venetian People ("Union del Popoŀo Vèneto", UPV) was a Venetist political party active in Veneto.

It was founded in 1987 by splinters from Liga Veneta (LV) led by Ettore Beggiato. In the 1990 regional election UPV won 1.9% of the votes (compared to the 5.9% of LV) and got elected a regional deputy, Beggiato himself. The party was merged into Liga Veneta in 1995, after that Franco Rocchetta and Marilena Marin, who expelled Beggiato and Tramarin from that party, had been expelled too.
