Sovereign Identity (Spanish: Identidad Soberana) is an anti-establishment political party in Uruguay. Founded in 2022, it is led by the lawyer and confrontational activist Gustavo Salle Lorier.[1] The party has been described as a catch-all group and a third way on the political spectrum.[2]

The party entered the Uruguayan parliament for the first time after winning 2 seats in the Chamber of Representatives in the 2024 general election.[3] According to Salle and leading members, Sovereign Identity is neither left-wing nor right-wing, and it is not aligned with either of the country's two major political blocs, the Broad Front and the Coalición Republicana.[4][5] Salle himself has defined the General Assembly as "the den of traitors," and has been described as an anti-establishment activist.[6] The party has appealed to some conspiracy theories such as that of the New World Order, and that of the so-called "kleptocorporatocracy" or government of the corporations and those related to the COVID-19 pandemic.[7][8] It has also adopted a stance against vaccines and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals.[9][10]
