Cemal Bozoğlu (born August 14, 1961 in Istanbul ) is a German politician with Alliance 90 / The Greens . Since the state election in October 2018, he has been a member of the Bavarian state parliament and, within his parliamentary group, spokesman for strategies against right-wing extremism and ombudsman for asylum and migration.

Political commitment

In 1982 Bozoğlu became a member of the Greens in the Augsburg city ​​association. He was a member of the Augsburg city council for the first time from 2002 to 2008. In 2014 he was re-elected to the Augsburg city parliament. He gave up this mandate when he entered the state parliament, and Eva Leipprand took over for him .

In the state elections in Bavaria in 2018 , Bozoğlu achieved the fourth best overall vote result in the constituency of Swabia ( Augsburg-Stadt-West district ) on the constituency list of the Greens and was thus elected to the Bavarian state parliament. In his own constituency, he received 22.2% of the first vote and ended up in second place.

Within the parliamentary group of Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen Bayern he was assigned the following responsibilities:

  • Spokesman for strategies against right-wing extremism,
  • Asylum and Migration Ombudsman,
  • Member of the constitutional committee and
  • deputy Chairman of the Prison Advisory Board in Memmingen
  • Member of the Petitions Committee .

Positions

According to a letter of application from October 2017, Bozoğlu is committed to a fair, ecological and cosmopolitan Bavaria, and he would also like to act as a bridge between Germans and people with a migration background. In his political work, he tries to emphasize the added value that migrants have for local society. For example, as part of the state election campaign in Bavaria in 2018, he and Katharina Schulze and Stephanie Schuhknecht visited companies in Augsburg whose owners are citizens with a Turkish migration background. His political goals include the traffic turnaround , ecological agriculture and a humane refugee policy.

Bozoğlu worked as an election observer in Turkey in March 2019 and concluded that “one cannot speak of free democratic elections”.
