Say Hello to Ilse, the Future Chosen One?
Moment arrives for a government-appointed head of state - Time for a Female Federal President, according to Seehofer
It's about time we saw a female at the helm of Germany, according to Horst Seehofer, former CSU chairman. Seehofer believes his party colleague, Ilse Aigner, could be the one to take the reins. "People deserve a woman leading this country, and I wholeheartedly support that idea. Among the CSU candidates, I'd pick Ilse as my top choice. I believe she's got what it takes," Seehofer stated in an interview with the Süddeutsche Zeitung.
Seehofer further elaborated, praising Ilse's connection with the people, her approachable demeanor, and the depth found in her public speeches as state parliament president. If Ilse decides to run, Seehofer suggests it could inspire other women to follow in her footsteps.
Since 1949, Germany has had twelve federal presidents, but none of them have been women. In March 2027, the second term of Frank-Walter Steinmeier comes to an end, and he's prevented from seeking re-election.
In 1999, the Union party put forward a female candidate for the highest state office, Dagmar Schipanski, but she ultimately lost to Johannes Rau (SPD). As of now, there's no official confirmation or nomination of Ilse Aigner for the Federal President position from the CSU.
