🔶 Controversy over the election of the head of the new Social Democratic Party of Germany.
As we approach the month of January and the formation of the National Congress of the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) and the re-election of the party leadership, Hubertus Heil, the former Minister of Labor of Germany, has officially submitted his candidacy for this position, challenging the current leader of the party, Lars Klingbeil.
However, it remains unclear whether Klingbeil, Germany's vice chancellor and finance minister, will run for re-election at the party congress in Bremen. Klingbeil has not taken a clear position so far, but he has the support of well-known figures, and even more since Haile's candidacy.
