Thierry Mariani (born 8 August 1958) is a French politician serving as a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) since 2019.

Thierry Mariani was born on 8 August 1958 in Orange.

His family is of Italian origin, from Castellafiume.

He went to school in Avignon, then Aix-en-Provence, before he attended higher education in Paris.

1976

Mariani started a career in politics in 1976, alongside Nicolas Sarkozy.

1988

He was elected to the General Council of Vaucluse for the canton of Valréas from 1988 to 2001 and served as one of its vice presidents for the last nine years of his tenure.

1989

He held the mayorship of Valréas, the city where he grew up, from 1989 to 2005.

1992

He also was a regional councillor of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur from 1992 to 1993 and again from 2004 to 2015.

1993

In the 1993 legislative election, he was elected to the National Assembly in Vaucluse's 4th constituency.

He has been a member of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe and an observer of the Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation.

2009

In 2009, he was appointed as the French Special Representative for Pakistan and Afghanistan during the Kabul elections.

2010

He previously served as Minister in charge of Transport under the Minister of Ecology, Sustainable development, Transport and Housing from 2010 to 2012 (with the title of Secretary of State until 2011).

On 14 November 2010, he was appointed Secretary of State at the Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable development, Transport and Housing.

In 2010, the NGO  L'Eurasie, les nouveaux horizons co-organised an event with an NGO led by Elkhan Suleymanov, an Azerbaijani MP at the centre of lobbying scandals in the PACE.

He was also one of the key persons of the Azerbaijani Laundromat.

2011

On 29 June 2011, his title was changed to Minister in charge of Transport, a junior minister office under Minister Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet.

In April 2011, the Union for a Popular Movement selected Mariani as its candidate in the newly created eleventh constituency for French residents overseas (covering French citizens resident in most of Asia, the whole of Oceania, as well as part of Eastern Europe) for the 2012 legislative election.

In Vaucluse's 4th constituency, he was succeeded by Jacques Bompard.

2012

From 2012 to 2017, Mariani was a member of the French delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe.

In this capacity, he served as head of the Committee on Migration, Refugees and Displaced Persons; as member of the Committee on the Honouring of Obligations and Commitments by Member States of the Council of Europe (Monitoring Committee); and as member of the Sub-Committee on Crime Problems and the Fight against Terrorism.

2015

In 2015, Mariani prepared the Council of Europe's report on Chinese migration to Europe, in which he raised "human rights concerns with regard to trafficking and smuggling rings, the lack of legal protection, and the poor work conditions these immigrants often face".

In July 2015, Mariani, accompanied by Russian officials, made a trip to Crimean Peninsula which was annexed by Russia in 2014.

In interviews and meetings he expressed support: "We welcome the courage of the Crimean Parliament because it was able to make this decision despite the difficult situation and a great risk of escalation".

2017

Ahead of the 2017 presidential election, Mariani endorsed former Prime Minister François Fillon's presidential bid.

In the subsequent 2017 legislative election, he ran for reelection but was heavily defeated by Anne Genetet.

In 2017, he served as the National Assembly's rapporteur on Poland.

Mariani was chosen to lead the National Rally list in the 2021 regional election in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, where he challenged Renaud Muselier's presidency over the regional council.

Some commentators deemed the election to be the National Rally's best chance to win a regional majority for the first time in its history.

However, his list placed second (42.7%) in the second round after winning the first (36.3%).

Therry Mariani is a member of Azerbaijan's Friends Association, which, according to Le Monde, is the main tool of the caviar diplomacy used by the authoritarian state of Azerbaijan especially in France.

As a Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) member, he was known as one of the key actors of caviar diplomacy in Europe and a strong support of the Ilham Aliyev regime.

The PACE investigation report mentions Mariani as one of the MPs who were not sensitive to human rights violations in Azerbaijan and were backing the Azerbaijani authorities in the PACE.

Mariani figures prominently as a friend of the Aliyev regime in the French documentary series by France 2, called Cash Investigation: Mon président est en voyage d’affaires.

Mariani has personal relations with the Aliyev family; he has repeatedly spoken alongside Mehriban Aliyeva, Azerbaijan's First Lady, at several Azerbaijani-organised events in France.

Mariani is the Chairman of the NGO L'Eurasie, les nouveaux horizons, a member-organisation of the European Academy for Election Observation, an election observation NGO founded by Azerbaijan apologists Stef Goris and Alain Destexhe, which has promoted Azerbaijani interests in Europe.

2019

A former member of The Republicans (LR), he has been an Independent since 2019.

Mariani joined the National Rally (RN) list for the 2019 European Parliament election.

In the 2021 regional election, he led the party's list in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.

Although he was ahead in the polls for both the first and second round of voting, which would have made him the first president of a Regional Council affiliated with the National Rally, he placed second in the election's second round, losing to incumbent Renaud Muselier, caused by a low turnout rate induced by the Covid-19 pandemic and an election delay.

In the 2019 election, he was elected to the European Parliament as an Independent on the National Rally list.
