Raúl Alberto Cubas Grau (born 23 August 1943) is a Paraguayan politician and electrical engineer who served as the 45th President of Paraguay from 1998 until his resignation in 1999. A colorado and loyal follower of Lino Oviedo, who could not run for president due to his imprisonment, Cubas was elected in 1998 alongside his running mate, Luis María Argaña, a colorado caudillo who had become Oviedo's biggest political rival. In March of 1999, large protests against Cubas' government erupted following the assassination of Vice President Argaña. As a result of these days of social unrest, which came to be known as the Marzo Paraguayo, Cubas resigned and was succeeded by the president of the Senate, Luis González Macchi.
