Political career

Luksic served as Member of the German Bundestag between the 2002 and the 2013 national elections. In this capacity, he was a member of the Committee on European Affairs and of the Committee on Transport, Building and Urban Development. In 2012, he succeeded Patrick Döring as the FDP parliamentary group's spokesperson on transport policy.

In addition to his committee assignments, Luksic served as chairman of the German Parliamentary Friendship Group with Belgium and Luxembourg.

In addition to his committee assignments, he chaired the Parliamentary Friendship Group for Relations with Croatia and Slovenia. From 2019, he was a member of the German delegation to the Franco-German Parliamentary Assembly.[3]
