The Democratic Party of Pensioners of Slovenia (Slovene: Demokratična stranka upokojencev Slovenije, also known by the acronym DeSUS) was a political party in Slovenia last led by Vlado Dimovski. The party claimed broadly liberal values with a strong focus on the interests of the retired and the elderly. Despite being part of virtually every governmental coalition of Slovenia since it started appearing on voting ballots, the party only secured 0.66% of all votes at the Slovenian parliamentary election in 2022 and thus failed to secure any seats in the National Assembly.
The party joined the European Democratic Party in February 2019.
The party merged with Good State (Dobra država, DD) in 2025 to form the Party of Generations.
