He is the first Muslim mayor of London, making London a first major metropolis in the Western world with the Muslim mayor. Like many of 1.3 million Muslim citizens of London, Mr Khan fasts from the sunrise to the sunset during the month of Ramadan, which is time of worship and the spiritual growth for Muslims. When the activist Aisha Desai started to campaign for the display of Ramadan lights in London (similar to the Christmas lights that are put up in a capital city of United Kingdom every year), Mr Khan supported her. In March 2023, Mr Khan and Ms Desai switched on the new Ramadan lights together on the Coventry Street near Piccadilly Circus in London. Anne Hidalgo became Mayor of Paris in 2014, making her first woman to hold that office. When she ran for the President of France in 2022, she lost an election, but in 2020, she was elected for a second term as mayor of her city. She has been very active in the fight against the climate change. Thanks to the policies she has introduced, Paris now has the hundreds of kilometres of bike lanes, and the banks of River Seine are largely reserved for pedestrians and cyclists. She wants to turn Paris into the ‘15-minute city’. This concept describes a city where all essential services can be reached in quarter of the hour without the car. If she wins a third term as Mayor in 2026, she will be able to get even closer to this goal. Way more! Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv
