Bruno Fuchs (French pronunciation: [bʁyno fyks]; born 7 April 1959) is a French politician of La République En Marche! (LREM) who has been serving as a member of the French National Assembly since the 2017 elections, representing the department of Haut-Rhin.[1]
Political career
In parliament, Fuchs serves as member of the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the Committee on European Affairs.[2] He is also a member of the French parliamentary friendship groups with Cuba and Turkey.
In addition to his committee assignments, Fuchs has been a member of the French delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe since 2017. In this capacity, he serves on the Committee on Equality and Non-Discrimination.[3]
He was elected to a second term in the 2022 legislative election, winning 55% of the vote in the runoff against National Rally candidate Christelle Ritz.[4]
In the 2024 snap election, he defeated Ritz again in a rematch after left-wing candidate Florence Claudepierre, who had also qualified for the runoff, withdrew to prevent the National Rally from winning the seat.[5]
In October 2024, he was elected to lead Foreign Affairs Committee of the National Assembly after its president Jean-Noël Barrot was appointed as Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs.[6]
