German Politician Henriette Quade Resigns from Left Party Over Antisemitism Stance

Quade cites the Left Party's inadequate response to antisemitism as the reason for her departure, highlighting internal divisions.

Henriette Quade, a member of the Left Party for 24 years, has resigned, citing the party's insufficient handling of antisemitism.
Quade criticized a recent party resolution for failing to address antisemitism while focusing on international law violations by Israel.
She argues that the party's stance leaves Israel defenseless and compares it to a 'policy of letting people die,' similar to its position on Ukraine.
Quade will continue to serve as an independent member of the Saxony-Anhalt state parliament, maintaining her commitment to anti-fascism.
Her resignation underscores ongoing tensions within the Left Party regarding its stance on Israel and antisemitism.
