Prerod

Prerod – Party of Vladimir Prebilič (, ; PVP) is a Slovenian political party founded in October 2025 by current MEP and former mayor of Kočevje Vladimir Prebilič, who currently serves as its president. The party positions itself roughly in the centre-left of the political spectrum and emphasizes moderation, political integrity, social and institutional reform, and cooperation beyond traditional polarization.

History

Founding

After 2024 European parliament elections there was speculation, about political future of Vladimir Prebilič, due to the party Vesna receiving a respectable 10% and gaining one seat, Prebilič. On 15 October 2025, Prerod was officially founded during its inaugural congress in Kočevje, where Prebilič was unanimously elected as the party’s first president. At the congress, the party approved its name, graphical identity (featuring a stylized linden sapling in green and violet), statute, and foundational program. It also elected core party organs and laid out initial leadership positions.

Early reactions and controversies

Because Prebilič was elected as a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) on the Vesna party list, the Vesna leadership called on him to return or resign his MEP mandate, arguing that he was elected under their banner and should not continue to represent them after forming a new party. Prebilič responded that he would relinquish his MEP seat only if and when he assumes a new incompatible office per the law.

In reaction to some of Prebilič’s statements, The Left expressed criticism, especially regarding remarks perceived as exclusionary; they and Vesna urged clarity and political responsibility from the new party.

Ideology and platform

Prerod presents itself as a pro-reform, moderate left-of-centre party aiming to transcend the binary divide in Slovenian politics.

Some of its five foundational pillars outlined by Prebilič include:

  1. Ensuring public safety (without promoting militaristic escalation)
  2. Reordering and strengthening the systems of public health and education
  3. Enhancing the competitiveness of the economy
  4. Restoring political integrity and combating corruption
  5. Fostering cooperation, connection, and reduction of polarization

The party signals zero tolerance toward corruption, digital modernization of the state, investment in strategic infrastructure, emphasis on social stability and demography, and balanced defense and security modernization.
