Georges Sarre (26 November 1935 – 31 January 2019)[1] was a French politician and leader of the Citizen and Republican Movement.
Sarre was an early supporter of Jean-Pierre Chevènement and François Mitterrand within the new Socialist Party (PS), which he joined at the famous Epinay Congress in 1971.
Between 1988 and 1993 he served as Secretary of State for Road and Fluvial Transportation in the governments led by Michel Rocard, Édith Cresson and Pierre Bérégovoy.
That same year, disagreeing with the Socialist Party's neo-liberal derive, he joined Jean-Pierre Chevènement in creating the Citizens' Movement (MDC).
Despite the lack of PS opposition, he lost the runoff to UMP incumbent Jean Auclair.
