CDU Hessen

CDU Hessen is the regional branch of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) in the German state of Hesse. The CDU is a major political party in Germany with a center-right platform. CDU Hessen is newsworthy due to the recent death of Christian Schwarz-Schilling, a prominent CDU politician who served as Federal Minister for Post and Telecommunications under Chancellor Helmut Kohl. Schwarz-Schilling's death was announced by CDU Hessen, highlighting the party's connection to his legacy. He also served as High Representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina.
