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. She succeeded Gijs Tuinman, who had been appointed defence state secretary in the Schoof cabinet two days earlier. Her portfolio contains defense, justice, security, housing, and spatial planning.
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.
