The Communist Party of Uzbekistan (Uzbek: Ўзбекистон коммунистик партияси, romanized: Oʻzbekiston kommunistik partiyasi, Russian: Коммунистическая партия Узбекистана) is a banned communist party in Uzbekistan, founded in 1994. The party considers itself the only and true successor of the Communist Party of the Uzbek SSR (as part of the CPSU), although on November 1, 1991, the former Communist Party of the Uzbek SSR was transformed into the People's Democratic Party of Uzbekistan (XDP). Many activists and party members were persecuted by the Uzbek authorities, and many were forced to flee the country, mainly to Russia. The founder and permanent leader (first secretary) of the party is Kakhraman Makhmudov.
