Parteiquerelen: Thüringer BSW-Fraktion hält an „Brombeer-Koalition“ fest
Der Konflikt zwischen dem Bundesvorstand und der Thüringer Landtagsfraktion des BSW erreicht die nächste Eskalationsstufe: Eine Mehrheit der Abgeordneten stellt sich offen gegen Berlin.
The Thuringian BSW parliamentary group remains committed to the government coalition with the CDU and SPD despite contrary demands from the federal level. After extensive discussions, the BSW faction unanimously decided to stay in the government, said Fraktion leader Sigrid Hupach following a session of the state parliament deputies in Erfurt.
Among the 15 BSW deputies, 13 participated in the deliberation. The absent were BSW deputies Anke Wirsing and Sven Küntzel. The decision to remain in the government coalition, Hupach explained, is "a consistent continuation of the Thuringian path for stability, peace, social justice, and reason for the people of Thuringia."
BSW state president and Thuringian Finance Minister Katja Wolf stated that the alliance between Sahra Wagenknecht was established to effect change, including through government responsibility. She is convinced that the Thuringian BSW representatives consistently pursued the founding idea. "And that, from my personal perspective, gives me no reason to leave the BSW."
The BSW's federal leadership had urged the Thuringian branch to stop supporting CDU Minister-President Mario Voigt and to abandon the so-called Bramberry coalition. The basis for this is the revocation of Voigt's doctorate by TU Chemnitz. Voigt's lawyer said he plans to appeal the decision.
