The Arabian Peninsula People's Union (APPU) was a Nasserist political party in Saudi Arabia that was founded in 1959, dissolving between the late 1980s and early 1990s. The party was founded by the leader of the 1956 ARAMCO strikes, Nasir al-Sa'id, who was in exile in Beirut, Lebanon at the time of the APPU's founding. From 1959 to 1967, the APPU tried to wage guerrilla war against the Saudi government, and seventeen party members were publicly executed in Riyadh in March 1967. After Gamal Abdel Nasser's death, the APPU lost support, and it dissolved towards the end of the Cold War.
