United Serbia (Template:Langx, abbr. JS) is a national-conservative political party in Serbia. It split from the Party of Serbian Unity in 2004. The party has supported every government formed since its creation, and was briefly in government in 2022–23.

History

It was founded on 15 February 2004, as a split from the far-right Party of Serbian Unity with Dragan Marković Palma elected as the leader on the first party assembly.[1][2] During its early years, the party had close relations with other right-wing parties such as New Serbia and Democratic Party of Serbia, even participating with them in the 2007 parliamentary election.[3]

During the 2008 parliamentary election, they participated in a coalition around the Socialist Party of Serbia and supported the accession of Serbia into the European Union.[4][2] After the election, United Serbia was the first to announce the beginning of talks with the coalition For a European Serbia, led by the President Boris Tadić, on forming the new government.[5]

The United Serbia, including its leader Palma, supported the "Serbs for Trump" campaign and Donald Trump in the 2020 United States presidential election.[6]

Ideology and platform

JS is positioned on the right of the political spectrum.[7] It has been described as national-conservative and populist.[8][9][10] It is staunchly socially conservative and it also advocates regionalism.[11]

Organisation

The party leader was Dragan Marković, former mayor of Jagodina, until his death in November 2024.[12]

In 2012, JS had 82,000 members.[13]
