National Unity of Timorese Resistance

The National Unity of Timorese Resistance (União Nacional Democrática de Resistência Timorense UNDERTIM) is a political party in East Timor founded in 2005.[1] Cornelio Gama, a former FALINTIL commander and former member of the National Parliament, has served as the party's leader since its creation.[1]

In the parliamentary election held on 30 June 2007, the party won 3.19% of the total votes and 2 seats in parliament.[2] UNDERTIM chose to established its first headquarters in Bucoli, Baucau because of the role of the village in the history of the East Timorese resistance movement.[3]
