Frithjof Schmidt Biography
Frithjof Schmidt (born 17 April 1953 in Bad Harzburg) is a German politician and member of the Alliance ’90/The Greens group in the Bundestag. Between 2004 and 2009, he served as Member of the European Parliament for Alliance ’90/The Greens, part of the European Greens.
Schmidt became a member of Alliance ’90/The Greens in 1988. From 1996 to 1998, he was a member of the party’s federal executive board under the leadership of Gunda Röstel and Jürgen Trittin.
During his time in the European Parliament, Schmidt served as rapporteur on parliamentary resolutions on fair trade and development (2006) as well as on policy coherence for development and the effects of the EU’s exploitation of certain biological natural resources on development in West Africa (2008).
Between 2006 and 2012, he was publisher-editor of German weekly newspaper Der Freitag.
Throughout his tenure, Schmidt was a member of the Committee on Development, which he became the vice-chairman of in 2007. From 2005, he also served as a member of the ACP–EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly.
In his first term between 2009 and 2013, Schmidt was part of his parliamentary group’s leadership around co-chairs Renate Künast and Jürgen Trittin, in charge of foreign policy issues. He was re-elected to that position in 2013, this time under the leadership of Katrin Göring-Eckardt and Anton Hofreiter. Following the 2017 elections, he was replaced by Agnieszka Brugger; instead, he joined the Committee on Foreign Affairs and its Sub-Committee on the United Nations.
In the 2009 German federal elections, Schmidt was elected into the Bundestag. He has since been a member of the Committee on Foreign Affairs.
In August 2012, Schmidt was one of 124 members of the Bundestag to sign a letter that was sent to the Russian ambassador to Germany, Vladimir Grinin, expressing concern over the trial against the three members of Pussy Riot. “Being held in detention for months and the threat of lengthy punishment are draconian and disproportionate,” the lawmakers said in the letter. “In a secular and pluralist state, peaceful artistic acts — even if they can be seen as provocative — must not lead to the accusation of serious criminal acts that lead to lengthy prison terms.”
In late 2016, Schmidt was part of a group of German left-leaning lawmakers from the Green Party, the center-left Social Democrats (SPD) and the Left Party who met to explore the possibility of forming a coalition government to replace Chancellor Angela Merkel in the 2017 elections.
In addition to his committee assignments, Schmidt has been a member of the German delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) since 2018. A delegate of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe group, he serves on the Committee on Political Affairs and Democracy. In this capacity, he authored a 2019 report on the use of digital technologies in the context of elections.
