The Social Democratic Party of Kosovo (Albanian: Partia Socialdemokrate e Kosovës, PSD) is a political party in the Republic of Kosovo. It was established on 10 February 1990 by Kaqusha Jashari and was second political party to be established in the newly pluralist Kosovo.[1]

The current leader of the party is Shpend Ahmeti. He was chosen at the party's meeting on 9th May, 2018.[2]

In Parliament

Today, the party is represented in parliament by 12 MP's, who all dissolved into the party from the Group of the Independent Deputies, a group of former members of the Vetëvendosje movement.[3] Dardan Sejdiu is the head of the parliamentary group.
