Crisis in the German Green Party: Youth leadership leaves the party

Crisis in the German Green Party: Youth leadership leaves the party

Following the Federal Executive Board a few days ago, the State Executive Board of the Green Youth Organization in Bavaria and the State Executive Board of the Youth Organization in Lower Saxony announced their departure. The reason for this is the “process of alienation” from the Green Party in recent months and years.

After the Federal Council of the German Green Youth Organization, the entire Board of Directors of the German Youth Organization in Bavaria also announced his departure. The Double Green Youth leadership in Lower Saxony also does the same as its federal executive board and withdraws from the party.

The reason for this is the process of alienation from the Green Party over the past few months and years. “We can no longer and do not want to support many of the decisions taken by the Green Party in government engagement, as well as the current programmatic, content and strategy path,” said the eight-member Green Youth Leadership in Bavaria.

In Lower Saxony, party leaders Rukia Subbotina and David Christner spoke of “insurmountable contradictions” with the party. “We have seen repeatedly in recent years how the Green Party is moving further and further away from putting the social issue at the center,” Subbotina said. Examples include supporting financial penalties for citizens, tightening asylum law and the lack of “answers to the housing crisis.”

In Hamburg, Green Party representative Ivy May Mueller announced her resignation from the party. She also wants to leave the Green Party in the Hamburg parliament. The politician announced that she joins the resignation of the Federal Youth Green Executive Council, which was announced the previous day. (APA/DPA)
