Sovereignty, Identity and Freedoms (French: Souveraineté, identité et libertés, SIEL) is a French political party led by Karim Ouchikh.[1] Originally described as right-wing sovereigntist,[2] it later moved towards Identitarianism.[1] The party had 2,000 members in 2016.[1]

The party was founded in 2011 by eurosceptic Paul-Marie Coûteaux in the run-up to the 2012 elections.[3] The party was formerly the only other party that was part of the Rassemblement bleu Marine coalition of Marine Le Pen, which it left in 2016.[1] The party counts among its members Renaud Camus, creator of the Great Replacement conspiracy theory.[1] The party advocates Remigration of immigrants.[1]
