Hesse: Greens set the course for state elections at party congress

Wiesbaden (dpa/lhe) - The Hessian Greens want to mark out the route to the state elections in autumn next year at their state party conference in Bad Hersfeld today (11 a.m.). The focus of the meeting is the lead motion "Change needs support. Support needs change". The party, which currently governs in a coalition with the CDU, wants to open the three-way battle for the Hessian state chancellery. Her self-confident goal: to become the strongest political force in Hesse, as state chairmen Sigrid Erfurth and Sebastian Schaub had previously explained. In addition to a political speech by Hessian Deputy Prime Minister Tarek Al-Wazir, a video message from Federal Minister of Economics Robert Habeck is expected, as well as a greeting from the party's federal chairman, Omid Nouripour.
