Étienne Blanc (French pronunciation: [etjɛn blɑ̃]; born 29 August 1954) is a French politician who has served as a Senator for Rhône since 2020. A member of The Republicans (LR), he also ran for Mayor of Lyon previously in 2020.

A lawyer by occupation, Blanc served as Mayor of Divonne-les-Bains (1991–2019) and represented the 3rd constituency of Ain in the National Assembly (2002–2016). He was also First Vice President of the Regional Council of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (2016–2020) under Laurent Wauquiez.

Political career

[edit]

A native of Givors, Blanc attended Jean Moulin University Lyon 3 to study law. He was a Rally for the Republic activist in the 1978 legislative election campaign in Lyon, when he was thrown in the Rhône by communist agitators.[1] He moved to Bourg-en-Bresse to practice law, where he was elected to its municipal council in 1983 for one six-year term.[2] He later held the mayorship of Divonne-les-Bains from 1991 until his resignation in 2019.[3][4]

In 2002, he joined the newly-founded Union for a Popular Movement, which became The Republicans in 2015. He represented the 3rd constituency of the Ain department in the National Assembly from 2002 until his resignation in 2016, triggered by his will to focus on his activities at the regional level.[5]

Following the 2015 regional election, Laurent Wauquiez was elected to the presidency of the Regional Council of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes on 4 January 2016. Blanc became his deputy, as he was elected First Vice President of the Regional Council the same day. He had previously been a regional councillor of Rhône-Alpes from 1992 to 2002, as a close ally to then-Regional Council President Charles Millon.[2]

Blanc was The Republicans' candidate for Mayor of Lyon in the 2020 municipal election, in which the list he led placed second in the first round before merging with the list of La République En Marche! (LREM) led by Yann Cucherat for the second round. He was elected a municipal councillor for the 3rd arrondissement, taking office as group president in the municipal council. In late 2021, Blanc resigned the group presidency following favourable comments he made on Éric Zemmour, which displeased members of his group.[6]

In the 2020 Senate election, he was returned to the French Parliament for Rhône. He later resigned as Wauquiez's deputy. In the Senate, where he sits on the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and the Armed Forces,[7] he presides over an information group on Nagorno-Karabakh.

Political positions

[edit]

Blanc is a conservative. He has advocated a right-wing electoral alliance beyond The Republicans ahead of the 2022 legislative election to counter the left-wing New Ecological and Social People's Union (NUPES).[8]

Ahead of the 2022 presidential election, Blanc publicly declared his support for Michel Barnier as The Republicans' candidate.[9] After Barnier placed third in the first round at the 2021 The Republicans congress, he supported Éric Ciotti for the second round.[6]

Blanc had called on Éric Zemmour to put his name forward at the 2021 congress for the party nomination, a proposition Zemmour declined before founding a new party, Reconquête.[10] Blanc expressed support for Zemmour's agenda-setting in the campaign leading up to the 2022 presidential election, but declined to join Reconquête, stating The Republicans should instead set a new course of action: "The right must tackle certain ideas head on: sovereignty, nationality, decline, immigration, identity, language, all themes that Zemmour makes his stock in trade". He called Zemmour's candidacy "the expression of [the right's] renunciations".[11]
