"Renewal Democratic Socialist Movement"

--- CONTENT ---
The Renaissance Democratic Socialist Movement (A.D.SO.K.) was a Cyprus political party founded in 1990 by executives of the "Renewal Wing" of A.K.E.L.

Background
The Renewal Democratic Socialist Movement was founded on 29 April 1990, when A.K.E.L. executives, among them five MPs (Papapetrou, Ziartidis, Fantis, D. Constantinos and Paul Diglis) left the party, expressing their strong disagreement about the policy pursued by A.K.E.L.

The president of the new movement was Paul Diglis and Michalis Papapetrou was the deputy president

In the 1991 election, it raised 2.40% of the popular vote, but failed to enter the House of Representatives.

In the 1996 election, led by Michael Papapetrou, the movement was not particularly dynamic. In particular, it raised 5.311, a percentage of 1.44%, and did not elect a Member.

That same year A.D.S.O.K. joined the United Democrats.
