TheParty of Danube Serbs (Serbian:Партија подунавских Срба,romanized: Partija podunavskih Srba,abbr.PPS) was aCroatian Serbminority political party inCroatia.
It was formed as theSerbian Radical Party in the Republic of Serbian Krajina by Rade Leskovac on 13 May 1992. Following the switching of power to Croatia over the previousSAO Eastern Slavonia, Baranja and Western Syrmia, the party was re-registered under its current name, with Leskovac remaining in the role of party leader. The party no longer supports theGreater Serbia concept.[1]
On 4 February 1995, SRS RSK president, Rade Leskovac, was removed as the president by the Executive Board of the Serbian Radical Party in the Republic of Srpska Krajina and was also removed from theSerbian Radical Party for attempting to separate sections within it.[2] Branko Vojnica was made the new president.
Leskovac caused a controversy in 2007 when election posters featured him giving a Serbianthree-fingered salute were posted around the city ofVukovar, which is considered an aggressive Serbian nationalist symbol by many ethnicCroats.[3][4][5] The Party was erased from Register of political parties sometime between 2012 and 2015.[6]
