Association of Italians of Romania - RO.AS.IT.
Founded1993
IdeologyItalian ethnic minority politics

The Association of Italians of Romania – RO.AS.IT. (Template:Lang-ro; Template:Lang-it) is an ethnic minority political party in Romania representing the Italian community.

History

The party was established in 1993 in Suceava.[1] It contested the 1996 general elections, but was beaten by the Italian Community of Romania (CIR), which retained the seat reserved for the Italian community in the Chamber of Deputies under the electoral law allowing political parties representing ethnic minority groups to be exempt from the electoral threshold only applied as long as they received 10% of the vote required for a single seat in the Chamber of Deputies.[2][3]

The party did not contest the 2000 elections, but returned in the 2004 elections and beat the CIR by 987 votes to win the Italian seat. It has retained it in every election since.
