First (February 1989), the Social Democratic Confederation was created, bringing together a number of informal clubs and groups from different cities. In January 1990, KFOR, together with the Moscow club "Democratic Perestroika" and a representative of social democratic groups from the republic of the USSR (Ukraine, Belarus, Estonia), took part in the establishment of the Social Democratic Association - an organization of an all-union scale. At the same time, an organizing committee of the Social Democratic Party of the Russian Federation was formed in the SDA, the constituent congress of which was held on May 4, 1990 in Moscow.
