Overview
DPSM's elected memeber of parliament is Ivan Stoilković who is also the party president. Stoilković was appointed government minister in the cabinet of Hristijan Mickoski in 2024.
The party goals may be defined as: preservation and advancement of Serbs and their respective culture and heritage by legal implementation and practical projects and support for the development of North Macedonia as a multiethnic, free-market orientated democracy. It has traditional base of members and supporters in the regions inhabited by ethnic Serbs: Skopska Crna Gora (Čučer-Sandevo Mhnicipality) and wider Kumanovo region (municipalities of Kumanovo and Staro Nagoričane); among Serbs in the capital city of Skopje; and among other communities of Serbs in other areas of North Macedonia.
From the inception of political pluralism in the North Macedonia, it is by far the most representative political option for Serbs. Since 2001 its preferred political partner is VMRO-DPMNE, current ruling party.
