The Union for National Salvation (French: Union pour le Salut National USN) is a political coalition in Djibouti.

Led by Ahmed Youssof Houmed, the coalition was formed to contest the 2013 parliamentary election.[1] The party won 21 seats in the election, although the USN cited what it referred to as cases of mass fraud and ballot tampering, and called for demonstrations.[2]

The coalition is composed of six parties; the ARD, the UDJ, the MRD, the PND, the PDD, and MoDel.[1]
