The Greens Face Leadership and Directional Upheaval

The Green Party is grappling with significant internal challenges. Recent resignations of key youth members Katharina Stolla and Svenja Appuhn have left a void, sparking criticism over the party's compromises on issues like Bundeswehr funding and asylum laws.

Meanwhile, Ivy May Müller left the Greens to join the Left Party, citing the party’s neglect of worker concerns. Amidst these upheavals, the party is poised for a leadership reshuffle.

Franziska Brantner and Felix Banaszak are running for party co-chairs, promising to steer the Greens towards a clearer social justice and economic policy stance. The new leadership will need to address internal divisions and restore the party’s appeal.

With a crucial party congress looming, the Greens must quickly redefine their strategy to regain electoral momentum and unity.
