The European Social Democratic Party (Romanian: Partidul Social Democrat European,[5] PSDE) is a centre-left,[6] populist[7] social-democratic political party in Moldova.[8] Established in 1997, the party holds pro-European views,[9] and is an associate member of the Party of European Socialists[10] (PES) and a full member of the Socialist International.[11] According to its statute, the PSDE pleads that Moldova is an independent, sovereign, and democratic state, based on law, and integrated in the united family of European democracies.[12][13] Reflecting former leader Marian Lupu's views, but also the strong influence of the Moldovan Orthodox Church, the party is more conservative on social issues, such as LGBT rights.[14][15]
