In a state meeting of the CDU party in Brandenburg, the sensitive topic of "Brandmauer" was put to a vote, and the decision-making process showed that the party remains committed to its positions against extremism. In this vote, party members voted negatively on the request to revoke the decision to align with AfD and clearly stated that they do not intend to retreat from their principles.

Reasons for the Decision

This decision was made amid increasing internal and external pressures to get closer to AfD. Party members believe that maintaining distance from this extremist party will help strengthen the identity and credibility of the CDU. However, some analysts argue that the lack of change in these positions may lead to deeper divisions in Brandenburg society.

Ultimately, this vote once again demonstrated that the CDU, despite existing challenges, has stood firm on its principles and seeks to maintain its integrity and identity as a traditional and moderate party.
