Véronique Caprasse
Véronique Caprasse (born 20 November 1950 in Lüdenscheid, Germany) is a Belgian politician and a member of DéFI, a French-speaker interests party in and around the Brussels region.[1] Caprasse entered politics in 1988 as an independent municipal councillor and joined the party (then called FDF) in 1998, driven by concerns over implementing the Peeters directive, seeing it as a threat to French-speaking communities with language facilities.[2] She was mayor of Kraainem from 2013 to 2015 and former member of the Belgian Federal Parliament.[3][1] Caprasse was a member of the Chamber of Representatives from 2014 to 2019.[4]
