The Danish Social Liberal Party (Danish: Radikale Venstre, RV, lit. 'Radical Left') is a social-liberal[13] political party in Denmark.[8] The party was founded as a split from the Venstre Reform Party in 1905.[9][10][11][12]

Historically, the centrist[14][15] party has played a central role in Danish politics and has supported governments on both sides of the political spectrum, as co-operation is a primary belief of the party.[16] A pro-European party, it is a member of Liberal International and the ALDE, and has two MEPs in the Renew Europe group in the European Parliament.
