The Party of Friendship, Equality and Peace (Greek: Κόμμα Ισότητας, Ειρήνης και Φιλίας, abbr. Κ.Ι.Ε.Φ.; Turkish: Dostluk-Eşitlik-Barış Partisi) is a Greek political party founded to represent the interests of a part of the Turkish minority of Greece (West Thrace).

The party was created on September 13, 1991 by Sadik Achmet who presided over it until his death in 1995. Achmet was succeeded by his widow Isik Achmet (Işık Ahmet) who led until 1999.
