Marieke Wijen-Nass (born 10 March 1993) is a Dutch politician for the Farmer–Citizen Movement, who has been a member of the House of Representatives since 4 July 2024.[1] She succeeded Gijs Tuinman, who had been appointed defence state secretary in the Schoof cabinet two days earlier.[2]

In an October 2024 debate, Wijen-Nass expressed support for Ukraine in its defense against the Russian invasion, but she opposed Ukrainian membership of the NATO military alliance afterwards, arguing that it should serve as a buffer state.[3]
