German to English Politiker

[Martoo]

Hallo alles! I'm not too skilled on German and I got a question about this translation of the word "Politiker" in the WR dictionary.

die Politiker der Grünen
the politician of the green party

I know that Politiker can be singular or plural sometimes (don't know why) but shouldn't be "politicians" the english translation of Politiker in this case? Because I noticed that there is "die" with "Politiker" so I asume that it is in its plural form.

Thanks in advance; danke Freunde!

Right, "die Politiker (plural) der Grünen" = "the politicians of the green party"".
Or "der Politiker (masculine singular) der Grünen" = "the politician of the green party".
