The Left (Luxembourgish: Déi Lénk [dəɪ ˈleŋk]; French: La Gauche; German: Die Linken) is a democratic socialist[15][16] political party in Luxembourg.[17] On the political spectrum, it is considered a left-wing[18][19] or far-left[20] political party. The Left is associated with The Left in the European Parliament – GUE/NGL group in the European Parliament but does not have any members. The party participates in the Party of the European Left.[21] Déi Lénk wishes to transition Luxembourg from a constitutional monarchy into a republic.[22]

The Left was founded by the New Left and the Communist Party of Luxembourg (KPL) as an electoral party. It had members from both parties and independents.[23] In the 1999 Luxembourg general election, the Left won 3.3% of the votes and one seat in the parliament; André Hoffmann was elected from the southern constituency. In 2000, after anticipated elections in the city of Esch sur Alzette, Hoffmann became deputy mayor and Aloyse Bisdorff (KPL) succeeded him in parliament. In accordance with the Left's statutes, Bisdorff resigned from parliament and was succeeded by Serge Urbany in 2002. A dispute arose between a number of members of the KPL and the majority of the Left; as a result, the two parties ran separate lists in the 2004 Luxembourg general election. The Left won 1.9% of the votes and lost its parliamentary presence. In the 2009 Luxembourg general election, it increased its share of the vote to 3.3% and Hoffmann returned to parliament as the Left's sole representative; Hoffmann's personal vote of 9,067 in the south constituency was almost equal to the total number of votes gathered by the KPL, which won 10,803 votes.[24] In 2013, the party elected two members (Serge Urbany and Justin Turpel).

In 2022, member of parliament Nathalie Oberweis [lb] of déi Lénk made a statement concerning the war in Ukraine, that a peace solution to which Russia as well as Ukraine could agree should be found as fast as possible, and that this could best be achieved by Ukraine renouncing their accession to NATO.[25]
