The Party of German-speaking Belgians (German: Partei der Deutschsprachigen Belgier, PDB) was a regionalist[4] political party active in the German-speaking Community of Belgium founded in 1971.[7] The party was a founder member of the European Free Alliance in 1981.[8]
The party has been accused of supporting irredentism[6][5] and was involved in a scandal surrounding Hermann-Niermann-Stiftung which itself had ties to far-right groups.[6][5][9]
In 2008 the party was succeeded by ProDG.
