InfoRaúl Sevilla Manglapus (October 20, 1918, Manila – July 25, 1999, Muntinlupa) was a prominent post-World War II Filipino politician. He co-founded the reformist Progressive Party of the Philippines and the Christian Democratic Socialist Movement in 1968 (later renamed the National Union of Christian Democrats).

He was appointed as the Philippines' youngest-ever foreign minister in 1957, and was elected to a national Senate seat by a landslide in 1961. He also ran for President in 1965 but lost to eventual dictator Ferdinand Marcos. He returned to the foreign affairs post in 1987 as a member of the cabinet of President Corazon Aquino.
