The Party of Young People (POT) is a far-right political party in Romania that was founded in 2023 by Anamaria Gavrilă.

Gavrila founded the party after leaving the Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR), and the party backed Calin Georgescu's 2024 presidential bid. The party established a strong social media presence, helping catapult Georgescu to a surprise victory in the first round of the Romanian presidential election. The party opposed abortion rights, promoted vaccine hesitancy and traditionalist Christian values, and was accused of having links to shadowy influence groups who backed its pro-free market stances. In December 2024, the POT became the third-largest far-right party in the Romanian parliament after the AUR and S.O.S. Romania.
