The recent mayoral election in the southwestern German state of Baden-Württemberg made headlines with a Syrian refugee, Ryyan Alshebl, emerging as the winner. Alshebl, who arrived in Germany in 2015, secured 55.41% of the votes, defeating two German candidates in Ostelsheim.
The victory was described as “sensational” by Alshebl, who expressed gratitude to the community for their openness and diversity. His win marked a milestone as the first man with Syrian roots to hold a mayor’s office in Baden-Württemberg.
Alshebl’s commitment to his community was evident as he called his mother in Syria immediately after his win. Despite facing hateful comments during his campaign from far-right fringe voters, Alshebl’s dedication and positive campaign resonated with many Ostelsheim residents.
As a member of the Green Party and a German citizen, Alshebl has vowed to prioritize digital access to public administration services, flexible childcare, and climate protection in Ostelsheim. His journey from Syria to Germany, overcoming challenges and embracing opportunities, exemplifies resilience and determination.
The election of Alshebl signifies the growing acceptance of diversity in German politics, with the hope to inspire more individuals with migration backgrounds to pursue political office. The victory serves as a testament to the inclusive values of Baden-Württemberg and the welcoming spirit of its people.
