Political career

Mebarek stood in the

La République En Marche!.[2]

Mebarek stood in the 2019 European Parliament election in France. She was placed 6th on the PSPPND list, and so was not elected immediately but secured a seat among the British seats that were redistributed after the UK left the European Union. She took her seat in the European Parliament after Brexit.[3][4] She sits with the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats.

In parliament, Mebarek serves on the

Mashreq countries.[6]

Political positions

In May 2021, Mebarek joined a group of 39 mostly Green Party lawmakers from the European Parliament who in a letter urged the leaders of Germany, France and Italy not to support Arctic LNG 2, a $21 billion Russian Arctic liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, due to climate change concerns.[7]

Ahead of the 2022 presidential elections, Mebarek publicly declared her support for Anne Hidalgo as the Socialists’ candidate and joined her campaign team.[8] In 2023, she publicly endorsed the re-election of the party's chairman Olivier Faure.[9]
