- Romanian National Unity Party
The Romanian National Unity Party ("Partidul Unităţii Naţionale a Românilor", PUNR) was a
political party inRomania between 1990 and 2006.PUNR was the first
nationalist party in post-Communist Romania, created in 1990.Gheorghe Funar emerged as its leader. He would soon become mayor ofCluj-Napoca . In that office, he would promote Romanian national symbols, especially the blue, yellow and red flag, throughout the city. However, Funar later joined the other nationalist party, PRM, as General Secretary; this caused a sharp drop in PUNR's popularity, and left it without representation in Parliament from 1996.Its last leader was former General
Mircea Chelaru , who did not possess the charisma that Funar had.On
12 February 2006 , the PUNR was absorbed into the Conservative Party.External links
