The '''Democratic Solidarity Party''' (''Partido Solidaridad Democrática'') was a political [[liberal parties|liberal party]] in [[Cuba]]. Although changes to the [[Cuban constitution]] in 1992 decriminalized the right to form political parties other than the [[Communist Party of Cuba]], these parties are not permitted to campaign or engage in any public political activities on the island. The Democratic Solidarity party described itself as "an organization from within Cuba promoting democracy and the respect for [[Human rights in Cuba|human rights]] by the peaceful route." The last President of the party was Fernando Sánchez López. The party was a full member of [[Liberal International]].

It merged with the [[National Liberal Party of Cuba]] in February 2014 to form the [[Cuban Liberal Solidarity Party]] ({{langx|es|Partido Solidaridad Liberal Cubano}}, PSLC).<ref>{{cite web |url=https://cubadesdeadentro.wordpress.com/2014/02/25/se-funda-partido-solidaridad-liberal-cubano/#more-1174 |title=Se funda Partido Solidaridad Liberal Cubano |work=Cuba desde Adentro |date=25 February 2014 |access-date=12 September 2016}}</ref>
