Sofi Artz

Sofi Artz (Westlandic: Иoᴇı Aятz, Born: 30 July 1968) is a Westlandic politician who is currently serving as the Minister of Interior Affairs under Chancellor Oska Stärk. Artz has been incumbent since the beginning of Chancellor Stärk's second Cabinet which convened in February 2015.

Artz was first elected to the National Assembly in 2010, and undertook a number of integral roles in the National Assembly Interior Affairs Committee. Artz was appointed Minister of Interior Affairs by Chancellor Stärk in February 2015, in Stärk's first Cabinet reshuffle. In her role in the Cabinet and the Ministry, Artz has overseen changes in the way Intolerance offenders are brought are dealt with by the Police, following the rapid increase in cases of 'radical preaching' by Christian fundamentalists.

Artz has been described as a 'Strassonist hardliner,' belonging to the Radical Strassonist faction of the Socialist Party, and her National Assembly voting history has reflected this, voting for intervention and support in the Flemish Revolution and expansion of the Voice of Westland international radio services.
