Timeline
Suleiman Antoine Frangieh (سليمان أنطوان فرنجية; born 18 October 1965) is a Lebanese politician.
He is the incumbent leader of the Marada Movement, and a former Member of Parliament for the Maronite seat of Zgharta–Zawyie, in North Lebanon.
He is a candidate for the 2022–2024 Lebanese presidential election.
Suleiman was born in Zgharta, Lebanon on 18 October 1965 into the Frangieh family, a prominent Lebanese political family who claim descent from Franks that settled in Lebanon during the Crusades.
He is the son of the late Tony Frangieh, who was assassinated in the Ehden massacre in 1978, and grandson of the former Lebanese President Suleiman Frangieh.
Suleiman Frangieh's grandfather brought him to Syria after the Ehden massacre, which was perpetrated by the rival Maronite Kataeb Party militia forces.
In Syria, Suleiman was taken under the wing of Bassel Assad, eldest son of the Syrian President.
His friendship with the Al Assad family has remained close since then.
In 1982, he became leader of the Marada Brigades.
The militia later disbanded to become a political group following the Taif Agreement.
Marada began to participate in social, cultural, educational, health and political affairs.
In 1983, at the age of 18, he married Marian Sarkis, and they had Tony (born 1987) and Basil (born 1992).
He was appointed to Parliament for the first time on 7 June 1991 to fill his late father's seat and was then the youngest Member of Parliament.
He was subsequently elected for three successive terms in 1992, 1996 and 2000.
In the 1996 Rafic Hariri cabinet Frangieh served as Minister of Health.
Suleiman Frangieh joined mourners gathered in front of Beirut's city palace to pay his final respects to Rafic Hariri who was killed by a bomb on 14 February 2005.
His presence made many uneasy, since it was his ministry that was overseeing the investigation into Hariri's assassination.
Days after his divorce, he married media personality Rima Karakafi, and they had Vera (born 2007).
During the Lebanese Parliamentary Elections of 7 June 2009, Suleiman Frangieh was elected as a Member of Parliament for the seat of Zgharta-Zawyieh after he had lost that seat in the 2005 elections.
He won the seat along with his two running partners Estephan Douaihy and Salim Bey Karam.
Together, these three politicians, along with the addition of MP Emile Rahme, formed the 'Free and Unified Lebanon' bloc in the Lebanese Parliament.
In August 2012, Frangieh commented on the Syrian civil war stating that the pro-Assad coalition would win the war and gave his full support to the Syrian government.
Frangieh also added that he opposes the "negative neutrality" which is "pretending to be neutral while arms are smuggled from Lebanon to Syria".
He called the "negative neutrality" a "conspiring against Syria".
He did not run for re-election in the 2018 and 2022 General elections.
His son, Tony, succeeded him in the Parliament.
