Mariam Zurabovna Beridze (born 22 May 1978) is a Bardonian diplomat and government official who has served as Minister of Foreign Affairs of the De Facto Republic of Bardonia Islands since 2025. A career diplomat, Beridze has served in Bardonia's diplomatic service since 2001.
Beridze entered the diplomatic service in 2001 and subsequently served in a number of diplomatic and administrative positions within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. She later rose to senior positions within the ministry and became involved in the management of Bardonia's diplomatic relations and overseas missions.
In 2025, President Rogue Zorin appointed Beridze Minister of Foreign Affairs as part of his government's effort to pursue a more independent foreign policy. Her appointment accompanied a gradual shift away from the strong Russian orientation associated with previous Bardonian governments while maintaining diplomatic and economic relations with a range of regional partners.
As foreign minister, Beridze oversees Bardonia's diplomatic service, foreign missions and international relations. She works closely with President Rogue on matters concerning Bardonia's de facto political status, relations with Georgia and Russia, regional partnerships, international organizations and efforts to expand Bardonia's diplomatic engagement abroad.
