Expand cooperation with Poland and Europe's big cities
The Left commits to a united Europe based on solidarity and wants to deepen Berlin's cooperation with Polish municipalities and other European capitals. Exchange in science and culture is meant to help tackle shared tasks such as climate adaptation, mobility, and social participation.
The Left wants a united Europe. Berlin should work more with cities in Poland. The culture train to Poland should keep running. Berlin should also learn from other capitals in Europe.
The cooperation would run through the Oder Partnership. The Kulturzug (culture train) between Berlin and Poland would continue, with Warsaw as the next destination the party aims for. Cultural exchange formats would be used with cities such as Poznań. The party also wants to counter the division of the EU by authoritarian and nationalist forces.
