Politics of Serbia Political parties Elections The Green Ecological Party – The Greens (ZEPZ) was founded and registered on 5 February 2008.[1] The Party of Freedom and Justice, though formally a reconstitution of the ZEPZ, was created on 19 April 2019 through the merger of the ZEPZ, the Serbian Left, the Guardians of Stari Grad and several other parties and movements.

History

The SSP was founded in the Belgrade municipality of Stari Grad on 19 April 2019. Đilas was elected as party president, Borko Stefanović as deputy leader and Marinika Tepić and Dejan Bulatović as vice-presidents. The party was able to forgo the usual registration process for political parties in Serbia when Bulatović permitted his Green Ecological Party - Greens to be re-constituted; legally, the SSP is a successor to Bulatović's party.

Dragan Đilas and SSP have good relations with Prime Minister of North Macedonia, Zoran Zaev and his Social Democratic Union of Macedonia.[3]
