German proposal seeks Die Linke’s assets to compensate GDR victims
A proposal has surfaced suggesting Die Linke, the successor party to East Germany's SED, contribute their assets to compensate victims of the former GDR. Additionally, state lawmakers are being urged to donate half their allowances for the same cause.
The proposal comes amidst ongoing discussions about compensating victims who suffered under the communist regime. While no specific political parties have been identified as having made donations for this purpose, various victim support organizations and compensation mechanisms have been highlighted in related searches.
The suggestion for lawmakers to contribute half their allowances is a significant proposal, indicating a willingness to personally invest in the compensation process. This move, if implemented, would demonstrate a commitment to addressing the past injustices faced by GDR victims.
The proposed contributions from Die Linke's assets and lawmakers' allowances, if agreed upon, could significantly boost the compensation efforts for GDR victims. These steps, if taken, would show a clear dedication to acknowledging and addressing the hardships faced by those affected by the former regime.
