German parties launch election campaigns in Arabic and Turkish languages

The German left-wing party "Die Linke" aims to enter the Baden-Württemberg state parliament for the first time in the elections on March 8, targeting migrant voters. Party leader Jan van Aken has begun releasing campaign videos in Arabic and Turkish to engage this electorate.

Van Aken stated that many people, even after decades, feel unnoticed, and communicating in their native tongue is a matter of respect. This strategy is intended to boost support among ethnic minorities and migrant communities.

This move reflects evolving political strategies in Germany, where parties increasingly seek to address linguistic and cultural diversity. These elections may highlight the impact of cultural adaptation in political campaigns.
