The European Realistic Disobedience Front (), or MeRA25 (), (Ανατρεπτική Οικολογική Αριστερά) Radical Ecological Left, is a left-wing Greek political party founded in 2018. Its founder and General Secretary is former Syriza MP and Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis. MeRa25 is part of the Democracy in Europe Movement 2025 (DiEM25), the European Spring, and the Progressive International. The movement sets the horizon for the year 2025 to draft a democratic constitution that will replace all the European treaties that are in force today. Yet, it failed to elect representatives in the 2019 and 2024 European Parliament election. A party of the same name (MERA25), allied with the Greek party, was founded in Germany in 2021.
== History == MeRA25 was founded on 27 March 2018 by former Greek Minister of Finance Yanis Varoufakis. The party's formation was announced during a special event in Athens. In December 2018, former Syriza member and MEP Sofia Sakorafa joined the party.
