The NKPJ was formed in 1990. Its General Secretary is Branko Kitanović, a writer and a translator. The Party has a youth section, the League of Yugoslav Communist Youth (SKOJ) formed in 1992. The NKPJ supports Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin and considers China, Vietnam, DPRK, Laos and Cuba socialist countries. The NKPJ is strongly against Titoism but is of the opinion that Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRJ) was a socialist country until 1990. The NKPJ's goal is the reunification of SFRJ.
The New Communist Party of Yugoslavia boycotted the last parliamentary elections in Serbia (January 21 2006), because of its position that the electoral law violated the fundamental democratic principles and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. NKPJ supported Tomislav Nikolić in the 2008 Presidential elections in Serbia[1].
The Young Communist League of Yugoslavia is the youth section of New Communist Party of Yugoslavia (NKPJ).
