The Socialist People's Party of Montenegro (Montenegrin: Социјалистичка народна партија Црне Горе, Socijalistička narodna partija Crne Gore) is a social conservative, economically left-wing opposition political party in Montenegro. It is part of the Key Coalition, an opposition political alliance in Montenegro. It has 3 MPs in the Parliament of Montenegro, which it won in the 2016 parliamentary election. The party is pro-European Union and anti-NATO.

In the late 1990s a rift inside the ruling Democratic Party of Socialists of Montenegro came out. On the Montenegrin presidential election, 1997, aside then's President of the Republic and the Party Momir Bulatović, the Premier of Montenegro and party's vice-president Milo Đukanović ran too, leading a reforming wing opposing mainstream DPS CG's political attitudes regarding support of Serbian president Slobodan Milošević. The ruling parties of the Republic of Serbia (the constitutive partner of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia like the Republic of Montenegro), SPS and SRS, have soundly and firmly stood on Momir's side, while the opposition in Serbia (SPO, DS, DSS and GS) gave their support in Milo. It is so that the Democratic Party of Socialists - Momir Bulatović had officially seceded from the other branch of the DPS CG, but Momir's supports had only retained majority in 5 municipalities of Montenegro, while the other 16 in which DPS reigned voiced their support of Milo.
