Kühnert: SPD must present itself as progressive

SPD politician Kevin Kühnert has called on his party to present itself as progressive in order to win back voters. He said in an interview with the Tagesspiegel on Saturday that the SPD must “stand for real change” and must not be afraid of “breaking taboos.” Kühnert specifically mentioned the party's stance on climate protection and social justice, saying that these issues must be at the forefront of the SPD's agenda.

Kühnert's comments come as the SPD prepares for a leadership election in December. The party has been struggling in recent polls, and many members are hoping that a new leader can revive its fortunes. Kühnert is one of several candidates who are vying to replace Andrea Nahles as SPD

Kühnert is a rising star in the SPD. He was elected to the Bundestag in 2017, and he quickly became known for his outspoken views. He is a member of the party's left wing, and he has been critical of the SPD's centrist leadership.

In the interview with the Tagesspiegel, Kühnert said that the SPD must “move beyond the old patterns” and must “dare to do something new.” He said that the party must be willing to “break taboos” and must not be afraid to “stand up for what is right.”

Kühnert's comments are likely to be welcomed by many SPD members who are frustrated with the party's current direction. However, it remains to be seen whether he can convince enough voters to support the SPD in the next election.
