FDP party conference: route into the future
The FDP party conference did not bring any revolutionary events, although a certain dissatisfaction with the current coalition work was noticeable internally. Despite the lack of major disputes with the coalition partners SPD and Greens, it became clear that there are differences regarding social and economic policy. The rejection of the “pension at 63” and criticism of basic child support illustrate these differences of opinion. Party leader Lindner emphasized the differences in the understanding of the state between the FDP and the coalition partners. He also expressed concerns about moral finger-wagging in international politics.
The FDP party conference did not reveal any rapprochement with the opposition, but rather criticism of the CDU, especially of people like Ursula von der Leyen and Friedrich Merz. The Liberals are relying on their own independent positioning and a return to basic economic values. Secretary General Djir-Sarai emphasized the importance of the FDP for Germany's economic future. Despite fluctuating poll results, Lindner remains a central figure and received significant support during the party conference. A private letter that Lindner mentioned points to a central problem for the FDP - the departure from traditional values in the eyes of some voters. Lindner emphasized the FDP's willingness to continue to stand up for freedom, performance and property, even in politically unstable times.
