The Community of the Lipovan Russians in Romania (Romanian: Comunitatea Rușilor Lipoveni din România, CRL; Russian: Община русских-липован Румынии, romanized: Obshchina Russkikh-Lipovan Rumynii, ORL) is an ethnic minority political party in Romania representing the Lipovan community.

History

Established on 14 January 1990,[2] the CRLR took part in the May 1990 general elections. Despite receiving only 0.13% of the vote,[3] it received one seat in the Chamber of Deputies under the electoral law that allows for political parties representing ethnic minority groups to be exempt from the electoral threshold. It has been receiving a seat in every election since.
