The Sahra Wagenknecht phenomenon

 


Once the face of the socialist Left Party, 55-year-old Sahra Wagenknecht is well-known in Germany. 

She abandoned the party last year to found a new one that bears her own name: the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW), based on a mix of left-leaning economic policies, conservative views on migration and pro-Russian foreign policy initiatives.

Opinions about leftist leader Sahra Wagenknecht vary widely, but her new namesake party’s success in eastern Germany could change the political landscape of the entire country.
