Sahra Wagon Siphon parts ways, leaving uncertainty in the realm of BSW
As the December 6th and 7th party conference in Magdeburg approaches, the future role of Sahra Wagenknecht within the Bündnis Sahra Wagenknecht (BSW) remains uncertain. Despite some speculation among party members, there is no credible indication that Wagenknecht will step down from her leading position.
Current sources from August 2025 show Wagenknecht actively leading the party and making public statements. For example, she has recently opposed a bill on military service and called for the lifting of sanctions against Russia, aligning with the BSW's advocacy[2][5].
Contrary to some reports, the BSW retains its original name, with no verified changes to a new name discussed or planned around the December conference or otherwise[2][3][5]. The party, known as the "Wagenknecht party" or the "Union for Reason and Justice" in some descriptions, is explicitly named after its founder, Sahra Wagenknecht.
The BSW leadership has asked its members to propose a new name for the party, but no official decision has been made regarding a potential renaming[6]. The party spokesperson has confirmed that Wagenknecht will continue to engage for the BSW[7].
The decision about Wagenknecht's role within the party will be made during the conference in Magdeburg. The newspaper "Bild" reported about her future role within the BSW in its Wednesday edition[8].
Co-chair of the BSW, Wagenknecht has not yet decided on her future role within the party named after her. The party conference in Magdeburg will determine her future position within the BSW.
Stay tuned for updates as the conference approaches, as any major developments regarding Wagenknecht's role or the party's direction will likely be covered prominently in news sources and party communications.
