The Social National Unity Party (Partido Social de Unidad Nacional), or Party of the U (Partido de «la U») is a political party in Colombia. It attempts to unite various parliamentary supporters of Álvaro Uribe, the Uribistas, in one political party. It is led by Juan Manuel Santos and Oscar Iván Zuluaga. It didn't succeed in uniting all Uribistas: e.g. the Radical Change (Cambio Radical) didn't join. The party took part in the parliamentary elections of 2006, in which it won 30 out of 166 deputies and 20 out of 100 senators.
