Saskia Ludwig (born 23 May 1968) is a German politician.
Born inPotsdam, in theBezirk Potsdam ofEast Germany, she represents theChristian Democratic Union (CDU) and has served as a member of theBundestag from the state of Brandenburg since 2019.[1] Ludwig was a member of the Committee on European Union Affairs.[2] She is a member of theconservative Berliner Kreis[3] within the Christian Democratic Union.
In 2025, Saskia Ludwig campaigned against the election ofFrauke Brosius-Gersdorf as aconstitutional judge. Following highly questionable allegations ofplagiarism against Brosius-Gersdorf, she demanded that Brosius-Gersdorf temporarily suspend her teaching position at the University of Potsdam.[4] Shortly thereafter it turned out that Ludwig's own work was being investigated byPotsdam University.[5]
In an open letter, over 280 respected lawyers and academics protested against the way the Brosius-Gersdorf affaire was being handled: "Statements by individual members of the Bundestag that their university should take action against Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf based on these positions represent an attack onacademic freedom itself."[4]
After the scheduled election of Brosius-Gersdorf in conjunction with two more nominees[6] had been postponed,[7] Saskia Ludwig warned thecoalition government led by her party against re-nominating lawyer Frauke Brosius-Gersdorf: “She was and is not eligible for election at any time.”[8]
Kurz darauf wurde aber bekannt, dass die Universität Potsdam einen Anfangsverdacht für ein Plagiat bei ihrer eigenen Promotion untersucht.
