Chairwoman of the left-wing Die Linke party in Berlin Kerstin Wolter speaks during the extraordinary party convention on forming a government following elections in Berlin October 31, 2026. Germany's far-left Die Linke party scored a historic election win in Berlin in September 2026, but its path to power in the city-state has been complicated by its stance on the Israel-Palestinian conflict. Since its ballot box triumph, it has been accused of tolerating "Israel hate" and antisemitism in its ranks -- but also taken heat from members who say it is selling out its pro-Palestinian stance in pursuit of a governing coalition.
