Peruvian Communist Party – Red Flag (in Spanish: Partido Comunista Peruano - Bandera Roja), was a communist party in Peru founded in 1964 following a split in the Peruvian Communist Party.[1] PCP-BR sided with the People's Republic of China and Maoism in the Sino-Soviet split.[1] Leaders included Saturnino Paredes, José Sotomayor and future Shining Path founder Abimael Guzmán, who formed his own organization as a splinter from this party.[2][3] PCP-BR participated in the 1978 elections, on the lists of FOCEP.[4]
