Talking about politics…

Today we meet at TAMKOs office and talked about politics in our home home countries.

Political field in Ukraine is vast and intense, sine there are many left, centrist, and right winged parties that represent different interests. Politics usually actively participate in discussions, promote themselves via social media and TV, and generally try to be noticed, even if the target auditory pays a few of attention among target auditory. Who is mostly interested in politics as a way of living are currently young-middle age population, who are ready to literally fight for their, sometimes even marginal, position, with clenches happening sometimes among small groups of people. Moreover, sometimes the fights happen in the parliament, if the discussion is too hot, which nevertheless became more of a seldom occasion during the full-scale invasion of Russia to Ukraine, since mostly people try to act in unison to withstand the hefty war. Nevertheless, political scandals still happen, both among regular citizens and respectful politics.
In Germany there is a big political spectrum ranging from left-wing parties such as the SPD or the Greens to conservative and right-wing parties such as the CDU/CSU and AfD. Also there are also smaller politicaly-extremistic scene. These are the left-wing Antifa, which is primarily opposed to right-wing extremism. A small part of this group is sometimes involved in conflicts during demonstrations. They formed out of the want to fight back violent outbursts from the right-winged extremists. On the right wing are, among others, the Reich Citizens, who reject the state. This group is small, but individual members have become violent during police operations, and some attacks can be drawn back to them.
