Lindner succession wanted
Strack-Zimmermann does not want to become a FDP boss and makes counter-proposal
Does the FDP stay without any leadership? In any case, Marie-Egnes Strack-Zimmermann does not want to follow Christian Lindner. But then who does it?
According to his own words, FDP defense politician Marie-Agnnes Strack-Zimmermann is not available for the successor of party leader Christian Lindner and is now seeing younger people on the train. The party should be managed “by young people, the generation who has their future significantly further,” said the 66-year-old to the news magazine politico according to Thursday. This applies “politically, but also in years of life compared to me”.
FDP crashed to 4.3 percent
“The tour belongs in the hand of younger,” she affirmed. She also turned against her party colleague Wolfgang Kubicki, who-like initially Strack-Zimmermann-had shown interest in the successor of Lindner in the party chair.
At the same time, Strack-Zimmermann expressed the view that “a few old” interference and “could bring their experience into a team”. “If the party wants that, we should do it,” she said politico. Strack-Zimmermann is 66, Kubicki 73 years old.
As a result of his party’s failure, Lindner announced his withdrawal from the party leadership in the Bundestag election. The FDP crashed to 4.3 percent in the federal election.
