The Integrated Revolutionary Organizations (spanish: Organizaciones Revolucionarias Integradas, ORI) was the shortlived revolutionary government of Cuba that was formed on July 26, 1961,[1] as the result of a merger of the three last remaining revolutionary forces following the Cuban Revolution: the M-26-7 Movement, the Popular Socialist Party, and the Revolutionary Directorate.[2]
Intended by Fidel Castro as a transitional institution that would eventually lead to a unified party with the cooperation of all parties involved, PSP leader Anibal Escalante however had other plans - wanting the ORI itself to be the new party of the country. Put in charge by Castro to direct the newly formed organization, Escalante planned to integrated the Fidelistas into a stalinist-run structure, appointing former PSP members into key positions of power while relegating M-26-7 and DR members into less important ones to keep it firmly under Stalinist control . After realizing Escalante's plans, Fidel Castro then denounced his actions and expelled him from the National Directorate, assuming leadership of the ORI himself. Beset by sectarian infighting between the PSP and the two other organizations which sparked the Escalante Affair, the ORI was eventually disbanded and reorganized into the United Party for the Socialist Revolution of Cuba (PURS) under the leadership of Fidel Castro.[2]
