Serbian National Renewal

The Serbian National Renewal (Serbian: Српска народна обнова, СНО / Srpska narodna obnova, SNO) was the first political party founded in Serbia after the collapse of communism. It was established on January 6, 1990 by Mirko Jović and Vuk Drašković. Drašković left the party soon after and formed the Serbian Renewal Movement. Vojislav Šešelj went on to form the Serbian Radical Party. The SNO faded into obscurity not long after.

The party has been linked to the Dušan Silni paramilitary group and some of its members have been found guilty of war crimes related to the Lovas massacre.[1]
