Roberto D'Aubuisson Arrieta (August 23, 1943 – February 20, 1992) was an extreme-right Salvadoran soldier, politician and death-squad leader.
In 1981, he co-founded and became the first leader of the Nationalist Republican Alliance (ARENA) and served as President of El Salvador's Constituent Assembly from 1982 to 1983.
He was a candidate for President in 1984, losing in the second round to José Napoleón Duarte.
After ARENA's loss in the 1985 legislative elections, he stepped down in favor of Alfredo Cristiani and was awarded the honorary post of party president for life.
He was named by the UN-created Truth Commission for El Salvador as having ordered the assassination of then-Archbishop Saint Óscar Romero in 1980.
