Adeline Hazan (born 21 January 1956 in Paris) is a French politician who served as a Member of the European Parliament for the east of France from 1999 to 2008, and mayor of Reims from March 2008 to April 2014.

Early life and education

Political career

Member of the European Parliament

Hazan is a member of the Socialist Party, which is part of the Party of European Socialists, and used to sit on the European Parliament's Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs.

She was also a substitute for the Committee on Legal Affairs, a member of the delegation for relations with the Mashreq countries, a member of the delegation to the Euro-Mediterranean Parliamentary Assembly, and a substitute for the delegation for relations with the Maghreb countries and the Arab Maghreb Union.

Mayor of Reims, 1999–2008

Hazan was elected mayor of Reims in March 2008 thanks to the lack of unity of right parties. She competed against former minister Catherine Vautrin.

Ahead of the Socialist Party's 2008 convention in Reims, Hazan publicly endorsed Martine Aubry as candidate to succeed François Hollande at the party's leadership.[1] Since the convention, she has had the nickname of "La Bonne" (the Maid) after Aubry's phrase at the 2008 Reims Congress of the Socialist Party: "T'aurais pu faire le ménage Adeline" ( "Adeline, you should have cleaned the house", after seeing a spider on her desk during her candidacy speech.)

Hazan was not re-elected in 2014, since she obtained only 42, 75% of votes of citizens ; consequently, her republican competitor, Arnaud Robinet became mayor of Reims in April 2014.

Recognition

Hazan was a finalist for the 2010 World Mayor prize.
