Party of Anticommunist Unification (''Partido de Unificación Anticomunista'', PUA). PUA was a far right-wing party in Guatemala. The Party was founded in 1948 (October, 12) by General Francisco Javier Arana, a presidential candidate in the election of 1950. “Viewed as the major opposition candidate to the radical Revolutionary Action Party's nominee, Jacobo Arbenz, Arana was assassinated shortly before he elections”. 〔Political Parties of the Americas: Canada, Latin America, and the West Indies. Westport, CT: Greenwood Press. Breen, Richard,1996. Pp. 422.〕 The party supported the President Carlos Castillo Armas (1954-1957). It disbanded after the 1963 coup. PUA was re-founded in 1983 by Leonel Sisniega Otero. “The re-founder and leader of the party was previously a prominent member of the National Liberation Movement, but went into temporary exile and left the party after allegations in August 1982 that a coup was being planned against the Rios Montt regime. He went on to found the PUA, which attracted the support of some former National Liberation Movement members. 〔Latin American political movements. by Ciarán Ó Maoláin Published in 1985, Facts on File Publications (New York, N.Y).
