Left party goes into the fight for peace and social justice with a new duo

The Federal Party Congress of the DIE LINKE in Halle/Saale has taken a significant step by elected Ines Schwerdtner and ex-Bundestag member Jan van Aken. This choice shows a clear direction, especially with regard to the political focus of the party.

In his speech, Jan van Aken emphasized that the left would continue to be perceived as a party of peace and disarmament. He emphasized that the consensus within the party is about the need to reject military upgrade. He illustrated this using the example of the controversial 100 billion euro special assets for the Bundeswehr, which is for debate and is rejected by the left.

socio -political perspectives in the focus

KO party leader Ines Schwerdtner placed particular emphasis on social policy and demanded a strong defense of the welfare state. She accused the CDU to actively promote social services and criticized the traffic light government as not better. Schwerdtner makes it clear that the left wants to see a clear alternative, especially in the social area.

The election of the new chairman took place as part of a three -day party congress that ends today. This marks an important phase for the left because the party will try to redefine its position in the political landscape of Germany. Your attitude in peace issues and social matters will be crucial to achieve voters who do not feel well represented by other parties.

Developments in this party congress offer an revealing insight into the future orientation of the party, which intends to clearly differentiate itself from other political forces and emphasize their core values. The party congress in Halle serves as a platform to present and discuss these views of a broader public.
