Back to EpisodesCem Özdemir's Green Surge in Baden-Württemberg
Description
Cem Özdemir, a Turkish-German politician, has bolstered the Green Partys prospects in Baden-Württemberg. Born to guest workers, he rose to prominence as a preschool educator and social psychologist, becoming one of the first lawmakers with Turkish roots in the Bundestag at age thirty. Despite setbacks, he served as a government spokesperson and agriculture minister, and later led the Greens to a strong showing in the state election. Özdemirs early criticism of leaders like Putin and Erdogan, coupled with his Swabian roots and broad appeal, has solidified his position as a key figure in German politics.
