The Free Democratic Party (FDP) in Germany is facing a critical juncture following a series of electoral defeats, most recently in Brandenburg where they garnered less than one percent of the vote.

This marks the tenth consecutive state election where the FDP has struggled, raising questions about their future in the current coalition government with the Social Democrats (SPD) and the Greens.

FDP General Secretary Bijan Djir-Sarai expressed disappointment over the Brandenburg results, calling for a 'fall of decisions' to address pressing issues like migration and economic policy.

Party leader Christian Lindner has also acknowledged the challenges, emphasizing the need for the FDP to reconnect with its core supporters, particularly the middle class, who feel neglected.

Political analysts suggest that the FDP's struggles are compounded by their role in the coalition, which limits their ability to push for their economic liberal agenda.

As internal pressures mount, some within the party are advocating for an exit from the coalition, fearing further electoral losses could push them below the critical five percent threshold in future national elections.
