The SDPS joined the Progressive Party's Aleksandar Vučić — Future We Believe In electoral list for the 2014 parliamentary election.

He met with Belarusian information minister Liliya Ananich in October 2016 and was quoted in the Belarusian media as saying, "Serbia has a warm attitude towards Belarus and President Alexander Lukashenko."^[11]

During the 2016–20 parliament, Marinković was a member of the parliamentary committee on the economy, regional development, trade, tourism, and energy; a member of the committee on the rights of the child; a deputy member of the committee on finance, state budget, and control of public spending; the chair of the subcommittee for the reports on audits conducted by the state audit institution; the leader of Serbia's parliamentary friendship groups with Guatemala, Iraq, Israel, Pakistan, and the Sovereign Military Order of Malta; and a member of the parliamentary friendship groups with South Korea, Ukraine, and the United States of America.^[12]
