UPR
About
Union populaire républicaine (UPR) is a sovereigntist party founded in 2007 by François Asselineau, built almost entirely around the goal of French withdrawal from the EU, NATO and the eurozone ('Frexit'). It describes itself as neither left nor right and has never won a seat in the National Assembly or European Parliament.

François Asselineau, a former senior civil servant, founded and has led the UPR since 2007, building it into one of France's most prominent single-issue Frexit movements. He ran for president in 2017, securing 0.92% of the vote after gaining the required sponsorships, but failed to qualify for the ballot in 2022.
