As the party reports, Volt’s assembly meeting for the Biberach constituency took place in Ulm on November 16th. Karolin Werkmann is a direct candidate for the 2025 federal election, the press release continues.
The pan-European party Volt has unanimously elected 25-year-old controller Karolin Werkmann. The candidate’s main interests lie in the areas of economics, entrepreneurship and social justice. “The growing wealth inequality in Germany is dividing our country and hindering social peace. At the same time, our economy, including here in the Biberach region, is struggling with the effects of the recession. Short-time work, uncertainty in companies and financial burdens on people are omnipresent,” explains Werkmann.
In her speech about her candidacy, Werkmann also emphasized that she wanted to advocate for the interests of rural areas in federal politics.
The name Volt says it all and means “Energy for Europe”. In response to Brexit and the rise of right-wing populism in Europe, a French woman, an Italian and a German founded the pan-European movement party Volt in March 2017. Their goal: new politics for a new Europe. As the first truly pan-European party, Volt is committed to reforming the European Union so that global challenges can be solved across Europe.
Volt’s vision is a progressive Europe with a tolerant society, a climate-protecting economy, an adaptable education system and self-determined digitalization, the press release continues.
Guest 2: I would add that our vision also emphasizes the importance of innovation and collaboration among European nations. By working together, we can create policies that respond to the needs of all demographics, particularly underrepresented communities. Volt aims to drive forward initiatives that will not only address these challenges but also inspire hope and engagement in the political process.
