Volt Norway at Volt Europa's General Assembly in Frankfurt

In November 2025, several Volt Norway members travelled to Frankfurt to take part in Volt Europa's General Assembly — the party's highest decision-making body, where delegates from over 30 countries convene to set policy, elect leadership, and chart the direction of the movement. Over 2,000 Volt members from across Europe were in attendance.

Volt Norway participated primarily as observers — taking in pan-European democracy up close and in full scale. One exception stood out: our own board member Sergei Chernikov took part in a discussion on immigration policy, contributing Volt Norway's perspective to one of the most debated issues in European politics.

Perhaps the most unexpected moment came when Volt Norway was highlighted from the stage — recognised as one of the most effectively growing chapters in the entire organisation, both in terms of how quickly we have structured ourselves and the pace of our growth since our founding in June 2025. In just a few months, we had made our mark in a network spanning over 30 countries.

But the General Assembly didn't end inside the hall. Together with the rest of the 2,000+ attendees, we took to the streets of Frankfurt in a massive march for a united Europe — with the message «United States of Europe Now» ringing loud and clear. For many of us, it was one of the most powerful moments we have experienced as political activists: thousands of Europeans, side by side, with one shared voice.

We returned home with new connections, valuable insights, and renewed motivation. Frankfurt reminded us why this project is worth building. 🌍💜
