Asturian Renewal Union (URAS) is a regionalist political party from Asturias, Spain, founded in 1998 by Sergio Marqués Fernández, after leaving the People's Party (PP) when he was acting as President of the Principality of Asturias.

After being founded in 1998 by people who left PP and Asturianists, URAS contested the Asturian parliamentary election, 1999 achieving only three seats in the General Junta.

For the 2007 election, URAS took part in a coalition with Partíu Asturianista called Asturianist Union. Sergio Marqués left the presidency of the party after the election, being replaced by Javier López Alonso.
