The chairman of the PSPU is Natalija Witrenko . The party won 16 seats in the 1998 election to the Verkhovna Rada and unsuccessfully participated in parliamentary elections in 2002, 2006 and 2007.

The PSPU was formed in April 1996 as a split from the Socialist Party of Ukraine (SPU). During the first round of the 1999 presidential election, in which Natalija Vitenko ran as a presidential candidate, a hand grenade was attacked at an event in Kryvyi Rih .

She was denied participation in the 2010 presidential elections in Ukraine because she was unable to pay the nomination deposit fee. She subsequently supported Viktor Yanukovych . In the 2010 national local elections, the party won 3 seats in the Sevastopol city parliament.

The chairperson and her party are pro-Russian. The programmatic foundations of the PSPdU include a modernized socialism , pan (east) Slavic aspirations and the rejection of globalization . The PSPU speaks out against Ukraine joining NATO and the European Union . Instead, she advocates the country's accession to the Eurasian Union .

The party has good relations with the Serbian Radical Party (SRS) and has been a member of the All-Russian National Front founded by Russian President Vladimir Putin since July 2011 .

To this end, the party leader maintains contacts with the right-wing extremist organization Eurasian Youth Union (Russian: Евразийский союз молодёжи; ESM), which is banned in Ukraine and follows the program of Alexander Geljewitsch Dugin .
