Ubaldo Biordi

Ubaldo Biordi (1938 or 1939 – 2 May 2026) was a Sammarinese politician who served two terms as a Captain Regent of San Marino. A long-standing figure in the country's legislative body, the Grand and General Council, he represented the left-wing political tradition for over two decades.

Political career Biordi first entered the Grand and General Council in 1974 as a member of the Sammarinese Communist Party (PCS). He remained a member of the legislature for five consecutive terms, serving until 1998. Following the dissolution of the PCS in the early 1990s, he continued his political activity with its successor, the Sammarinese Democratic Progressive Party (PPDS).

During his tenure, Biordi was twice elected as Captain Regent, the joint head of state of the Republic: 1 October 1981 – 1 April 1982: served alongside Mario Rossi.

Death Biordi died on 2 May 2026, at the age of 87. His death was marked by tributes from across the Sammarinese political spectrum, recognising him as a "point of reference" for the left and for his integrity in public service. His funeral was held on 6 May at the Sanctuary of Valdragone.
