Victor Saúde Maria (1939 – 25 October 1999) was a Bissau-Guinean politician.

Early life

He was the country's first Foreign Minister (1974–1982) and then went on to be Prime Minister from 14 May 1982 until 10 March 1984, when he fled to Portugal after a power struggle with President João Bernardo Vieira.

Maria returned from exile in late 1990 and set up the United Social Democratic Party (PUSD) in 1992. He ran for President in 1994, placing seventh and receiving 2.07% of the vote.[1] He led the PUSD until his assassination in 1999.
