Turkish in the local council: dispute over the language of integration in Aalen!

In the past council meeting in Aalen, speaking of Turkish through supporters of the new list "Vision Aalen" ensured substance. A listener expressed his displeasure and demanded that only German to be spoken in the meeting room should be spoken. This statement has triggered a controversial debate that whipped the political landscape in the city. The list represented by Seren Yilmaz has been very committed in recent months to better include Turkish -speaking citizens in local politics.

Many of the candidates of "Vision Aalen" dominate the German language at native -language level and also speak Turkish. The list was criticized because in the past it has made the election campaign among clubs that are associated with Turkish fascism. Nevertheless, your initiative to offer election information in both German and Turkish is seen as a positive sign of Integration. This multilingual information has contributed to the fact that more people with Turkish roots have actively participated in the local elections. The discussion about language and integration ensures a magical color of the Aalen Politian landscape - a topic that the city will continue to employ. Further information can be found here .
