Sayonara, Osnabrück! Pistorius Steps Back From 2025 Electoral Race

C'mon, let's cut to the chase: Germany's Defense Minister Boris "Borsy" Pistorius revealed some shocking news recently. He ain't gonna run for the 2025 federal election in his old stomping ground, Osnabrück. Now, you might be wondering, what's the big deal? Well, here's the scoop.

The New Osnabrück Newspaper, an esteemed local publication, broke the story. Yup, you heard it right! The man himself confirmed it. But don't get your hopes crushed just yet. Boris did hint at the possibility of throwing his hat in the ring for another constituency in Lower Saxony. So, it's a "not yet" rather than a "never."

Boris Pistorius, a native Osnabrücker, held the post of the city's mayor for seven years from 2006 to 2013. After that, he served nearly a decade as Lower Saxony's Interior Minister. In 2023, he moved up the political ladder to become the Defense Minister.

The iconic bridge in Osnabrück has seen Boris Pistorius take a stroll across it during his time as mayor. But it looks like this time, he's just gonna watch the politicians parade by from the sidelines. Still, he left his options open, suggesting a possible run in another constituency within Lower Saxony.
