The National Union PSD+PUR () was an electoral alliance in Romania in 2004.
History The alliance was formed between the Social Democratic Party (PSD) and the Humanist Party of Romania (PUR) as a counterpart to the Justice and Truth Alliance (DA; PNL-PD), only for the 2004 legislative elections and Romanian presidential election.
The two parties - by then PSD and Conservative Party (PC) - also decided to form a political alliance for the 2008 general elections, called Alliance PSD+PC, reflecting the Humanist Party's change of name.
