Front for the Restoration of Unity and Democracy

The Front for the Restoration of Unity and Democracy (French Front pour la Restoration de l' Unité et de la Démocratie, Arabic الجبهة من أجل استعادة الوحدة والديمقراطية, abbreviation FRUD ) is a political party in Djibouti.

It supports the interests of the Afar people who live primarily in Djibouti and just put the minority of the population. However, the party also has supporters who reside outside the country.

The party was founded in 1991 and fought during the civil war in Djibouti against the government of the Union pour la Majorité Présidentielle (UMP ). Since the end of the civil war the FRUD is a legal opposition party again.
