Left Party Inquires About Poverty in Rural Areas
Berlin: The Left Party has asked the federal government about the extent of poverty in rural areas. In a small request, the party wants to know, among other things, how many people in rural areas are affected by poverty or are at risk of poverty. In addition, the Left Party is asking for information on the average income and unemployment rate in rural areas.
The Left Party justifies its request with the fact that poverty in rural areas has been largely neglected so far. “While urban poverty is often discussed, the situation in rural areas is often overlooked,” said party leader Janine Wissler. “However, poverty in rural areas is just as real and just as serious as in cities.”
The Left Party is therefore calling for a stronger focus on poverty in rural areas in politics. “We need targeted measures to combat poverty in rural areas,” said Wissler. “This includes, for example, investing in infrastructure, creating jobs and expanding social services.”
The federal government has not yet commented on the Left Party’s request.
