Flag

The party flag is charged with the logo in red and blue on white field. The logo consists of a red voided semicircle, combined with a blue cross-bar and within a blue ring, accompanied by the party name initials KDH, also in blue. The combination of semicircle and cross-bar also looks like the combination of a letter D and a cross. The flag photos reveal that the shades of red and blue are those of the national flag, with which the party flag is typically hoisted together, or a bit lighter; both flags are typically accompanied with the European flag as well.
