The Russian Democratic Reform Movement (Russian: Российское движение демократических реформ, Rossiiskoe dvizhenie demokraticheskikh reform, DRM) was a political party in Russia.

History

The party was established in 1991 by Alexander Yakovlev, Arkady Volsky, Anatoly Sobchak, Eduard Shevardnadze and Gavriil Kharitonovich Popov. In the 1993 parliamentary elections it received 4.1% of the proportional representation vote,[1] failing to cross the electoral threshold. However, it won eight constituency seats in the State Duma.[2]

It did not contest any further elections.[3]
