FDP President Thierry Burkart: “We must win the next elections”

The FDP might need an explanation after the next elections: “If we cannot make any gains within four years and the center remains as strong, then it will be difficult to argue why the FDP has two seats,” said party chairman Thierry Burkart. . (archive image)

“The fact is that we are behind the center in terms of seats, even if we are still slightly stronger in terms of voter shares,” the FDP chairman said in an interview with Tamedia published on Saturday. “If we want to keep both seats, we have to win the next elections.”

He made it clear that any change would require a vacancy in the Federal Council. As party chairman, he could not decide on the resignation of a federal councilor from his own ranks.

The Center Party wants to take on more government responsibility in the medium term, it announced on Friday. However, she is not yet aiming for a second seat in the upcoming general elections for the Federal Council on December 13. (SDA)
