  • Wolfgang Kubicki secured the FDP chairmanship with around 59 percent of delegate votes after Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann unexpectedly challenged him.

  • Strack-Zimmermann cited fears that under Kubicki’s leadership, the FDP might move closer to the right-wing AfD party.

  • SPD politician Karl Lauterbach harshly criticized the FDP, calling it unserious and unsuitable for government amid economic difficulties.

  • The FDP youth wing denied any alignment with the AfD, and Strack-Zimmermann pledged support for Kubicki despite her electoral loss.
    • This danger, of assuming that we might move in one direction together with the AfD, I find highly problematic.
