German Green leaders resign after dismal election results
The party is mired in “the deepest crisis” it has faced in a decade, one of its outgoing leaders said.
BERLIN — The leaders of Germany’s Greens on Tuesday announced that they will step down following a string of poor election results that have sparked a full-fledged crisis within the party.
“New faces are needed to lead the party out of this crisis,” Ricarda Lang, one of the two current leaders of the party, told reporters.
In a key election in the eastern region of Brandenburg on Sunday, the Greens crashed out of the state parliament, winning just around 4 percent of the vote, below the 5-percent threshold needed to gain parliamentary seats and a drop of nearly 7 percentage points from the last election in the state five years ago.
