Positions

Speaking about the 2021 manifesto of her party, Peters criticised that it emphasised growth too much, favouring instead an economy centred on human needs. She also asked for independent oversight for the police and a halt to all autobahn construction. She positioned herself against a possible coalition with the centre-right Christian Democrats,[11][12] a view she reiterated regarding the existing coalition in her home state of Baden-Württemberg.[13]

On the environment, Peters stated that climate protection must be socially equitable.[14]
