Die Linke has announced its top candidates for the upcoming Bundestag election, with Jan van Aken and Heidi Reichinnek at the helm. Van Aken emphasized the party’s commitment to advocating for the marginalized, stating, “We here below against those up there,” and criticized the wealthy, calling for their fair contribution. The party aims to surpass the ‘antisocial’ FDP in the election and plans to address crucial issues such as rent caps, social housing, and a unified pension system. Reichinnek expressed gratitude for the trust placed in them, promising to reconnect politics with the public.
