Respublika is a political party in Kyrgyzstan. Its chairman and founder was Ömürbek Babanov. The party was formed in June 2010. In 2014 the party merged with Ata-Zhurt to create Respublika–Ata Zhurt.[2] However, the two parties ended up splitting back in 2020.[3]
The party campaigned for the 2010 parliamentary elections on a platform stressing the ethnic diversity of Kyrgyzstan.[4]
Respublika received the votes of 13% of eligible voters in the 2010 parliamentary elections, giving it 23 of 120 seats in parliament. This result made the party the fourth of five parties to surpass the support threshold of 5% of eligible voters necessary to enter parliament.
