The Social Democratic Party of Serbia (Serbian: Социјалдемократска партија Србије, romanized: Socijaldemokratska partija Srbije, SDPS) is a centre-left political party in Serbia.[2][3] It is orientated towards social democracy.[2]

History

In late 2013 SDPS had joined in coalition with the Sandžak Democratic Party, forming a political union. Rasim Ljajić was elected as the SDPS-SDP's first head.[4]

In June 2018 the party was admitted in the Socialist International as observer member.[5] The SDPS currently has seats in the National Assembly. Rasim Ljajić is the current Minister of Foreign and Domestic Trade and Telecommunications since July 2012.
