During a recent party event, Eralp emphasized her commitment to addressing issues such as high rents and public transportation reliability. She advocates for a rent cap on state-owned housing and the establishment of affordable community canteens. However, tensions within the party regarding antisemitism and internal dissent persist, as evidenced by the absence of prominent members who have criticized the party’s stance on Israel. The upcoming election poses challenges for Eralp, who aims to position herself as a viable alternative to the incumbent mayor, Kai Wegner.
