When Anna Lührmann joined the Bundestag in 2002 at the age of 19, she was the youngest member of parliament. Today, the Green politician is 39 years old, Minister of State for Europe and Climate at the Federal Foreign Office and Commissioner for Franco-German Cooperation. A lot has changed in 20 years. Lührmann remembers not only a different party landscape, but also the fact that there was no social media yet – „completely unimaginable“ from today’s perspective.
