"German Politician Sahra Wagenknecht Launches New Left-Wing Party to Challenge Far-Right Opposition"
German politician Sahra Wagenknecht has launched a new party, the BSW, which aims to appeal to culturally conservative and economically left-wing voters by supporting higher minimum wage and opposing net-zero policies and weapons deliveries to Ukraine. Wagenknecht, known for her anti-immigration stance, left Die Linke and aims to attract voters away from the far-right AfD. The BSW's emergence could impact the upcoming European elections and state elections in eastern Germany, potentially challenging the far-right party's position.
