Mariliza Xenogiannakopoulou (Greek: Μαριλίζα Ξενογιαννακοπούλου, Greek pronunciation: [mariˈliza ksenoʝanakoˈpulu]) (born 1963) is a Greek politician and lawyer. She was Minister for Health and Social Solidarity (2009–2010), Alternate Minister for Foreign Affairs, responsible for European Affairs (2010–2012), Member of the Greek Parliament (2007–2012) and again from July of 2019 for Syriza, and of the European Parliament (2004–2007). She served as secretary of the National Committee of PASOK -Panhellenic Socialist Movement, member of the Party of European Socialists (2005–2006).

On 10 February 2012, she resigned from the government, citing objections with the terms of the second EU-IMF bailout for Greece. On 1 November 2012, she resigned her membership of PASOK, expressing her objections on the new austerity measures adopted by the Greek coalition government, stating that the party no longer represented her "ideologically and politically".[1]
