- Ramelow alleges that Wolf is overly accommodating towards the AfD.
Thuringia's Leader and top Left Party candidate Bodo Ramelow has expressed his dismay over the way his rival and ex-party comrade Katja Wolf (BSW) has been dealt with by the AfD. In Erfurt, Ramelow remarked, "I'm flabbergasted by how adaptable Lady Wolf is." The controversy stems from a television interview where Wolf didn't firmly dismiss the possibility of BSW endorsing legislative proposals from the AfD, provided they deem them right. "I'd call that flexible," Ramelow stated.
Ramelow highlighted that Wolf had explained her departure from the Left Party and joining the Sahra Wagenknecht alliance by stating she didn't want to wake up in a country with Thuringia's AfD leader Björn Höcke as Minister-President.
Ramelow's remarks raised concerns about the BSW's lack of clear stance in Thuringia. Voters should question the reliability of a party that seems to perform a sharp turnaround in just a few weeks, he suggested.
In an interview with "Der Spiegel", Ramelow questioned, "What exactly does Lady Wolf have to decide or discuss eventually? Everything seems to be centered around Lady Wagenknecht, who isn't even running in Thuringia."
The AfD's potential involvement in legislative proposals has caused a rift within the Left Party, with Bodo Ramelow expressing concern over Katja Wolf's flexibility on this issue. Ramelow's comments about Wolf and Sahra Wagenknecht's alliance have also sparked discussion about the BSW's shifting stance, with Ramelow suggesting that voters should question their reliability.
