The party leadership of the Left can chalk up the party conference as a success for itself and its course. The European election program was adopted by a large majority. Most of the amendments had already been cleared by the Executive Committee in advance, and the delegates voted on the rest, mostly in favor of the draft. The demand for a statutory minimum wage in Germany was raised from €14 to €15 at the request of the delegates and an automatic inflation adjustment was included in the program.
