The Estonian Reform Party is a liberal political party in Estonia that has been led by Kristen Michal since 2024. It is colloquially known as the Squirrel Party after its logo. It was founded in 1994 by Siim Kallas, then president of the Bank of Estonia, as a split from the Pro Patria National Coalition Party. Because it has taken part in most Estonian government coalitions since the mid-1990s, its influence has been significant, especially on the country's free-market and low-taxation policies. It has been a full member of Liberal International since 1996 and has been the senior member of a coalition government with Estonia 200 since March 2025.
