Weibke Sohr (born 19 January 1951) is an Ethalrian born Vothetrian politician who was elected to the Unterhaus in the 2021 Vothetrian general election as MP for Schlitzerk. She was appointed as Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Minister on 10 February 2021, only 22 days after being elected to the house, making her the fastest MP appointed to the Cabinet from election day in Vothetrian history.
Since the early 2000s, Sohr had been a public figure and advocate for restoring proper democracy in the Matriarchy of Ethalria alongside Kiara Lunenburg. In the 2015 Ribenstadt Protests, authorities arrested Sohr and Lunenburg and they both served one and a half years in prison for unauthorised assembly.
Sohr has been a long-time VWP member, with membership since 2013. She was an avid supporter of Sarohart's assension as party leader during the mutiny in April 2018 where members of the party wanted to merge with the VSP in Karinthus. She previously campaigned in the June 2019 general election for the Schlitzerk constituency but came second behind Luci Sonntag.
