Far-left?

edit

This is not a far left party. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, left-wing parties in Europe were much less likely to support revolutionary socialism. Traditionally, far left means revolutionary socialism. Rather, this party is close to the "liberal" Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) in the United States. In fact, the United Left, which is closely related to this party, has been compared to the CPC by observers.[1] Mureungdowon (talk) 04:30, 19 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
