The Communist Party (Marxist–Leninist) of San Marino (Italian: Partito Comunista (Marxista-Leninista) di San Marino) was an anti-revisionist, Maoist, communist party in San Marino.
The party was founded in March 1968 as the Marxist–Leninist Movement of San Marino (Italian: Movimento Marxista–Leninista di San Marino), by the dissidents of the San Marinese Communist Party.[1][2] Group was led by Giuseppe Fabbri, who was a parliamentarian of the San Marinese Communist Party before splitting from it.[3]
International relations

With the Sino-Albanian split, following its Italian counterpart, party took the side of the Party of Labour of Albania, and participated in the actions to support it, such as the "Internationalist Rally" in Rome on April 17, 1977.[10]
