European Socialists (Georgian: ევროპელი სოციალისტები, romanized: evrop'eli sotsialist'ebi) is a political party in Georgia. The party was founded on January 9, 2021, by four MPs who separated from the right-wing populist Alliance of Patriots. It did not participate in the 2024 parliamentary election, however, it is represented in the 11th convocation of Parliament of Georgia by 3 MPs who broke away from the ruling Georgian Dream party.
While nominally independent from Georgian Dream, European Socialists advanced the ruling party's agenda and have been described as pro-ruling party or as its proxy. The party has supported the "foreign agent bill", anti-LGBT policies, and other controversial initiatives of Georgian Dream.
