The '''Democratic Republican Party for Renewal''' ({{lang-fr|Parti Républicain Démocratique pour le Renouvellement}} - '''PRDR''') is a [[political party]] in [[Mauritania]]. Formerly known as the '''Democratic and Social Republican Party''', ({{lang-fr|Parti Républicain Démocratique et Social}}, '''PRDS''') the party changed its identity and adjusted its political stance after the [[Military Council for Justice and Democracy|2005 coup]]. Formerly very supportive of President [[Maaouya Ould Sid'Ahmed Taya]] and his pro-[[Israel]]i policy, after the 2005 coup the party denounced Taya's policies and the mid-2006 [[2006 Lebanon War|Israeli military campaign in Lebanon]].

In the [[2001 Mauritanian parliamentary election|2001 parliamentary elections]] the party won 64 out of 81 seats. [[Sidi Mohamed Ould Boubacar]], one of the bloc's members, was nominated as [[Prime Minister]] a few days after the 2005 coup.

The PRDR won seven seats in the [[2006 Mauritanian parliamentary election|November–December 2006 parliamentary election]]<ref>[http://www.ipu.org/parline-e/reports/2207_E.htm IPU PARLINE page on 2006 parliamentary election].</ref> and in the 21 January and 4 February 2007 [[Senate of Mauritania|Senate]] [[Mauritanian Senate election, 2007|elections]], 3 out of 56 seats.

{{As of|2008}}, the PRDR is part of the Mithaq El Wihda coalition and is led by [[Sidi Mohamed Ould Mohamed Vall]].<ref>[http://www.lemali.fr/afrique/politique/mauritanie%3a-la-coalition-mithaq-reclame-la-demission-du-gouvernement-2008030912025.html "Mauritanie: La coalition Mithaq réclame la démission du gouvernement"], Panapress (lemali.fr), March 9, 2008 {{in lang|fr}}.</ref>
