In addition to the German Christian Democrats (CDU/CSU), the Social Democrats (SPD), the left-wing Die Linke and the German Greens Party (Buendnis 90/Die Gruenen), the Free Democratic Party (FDP) will return and the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) will debut, with approximately 90 members.
