In parliament, Karamanli serves on the Committee on Legal Affairs. In November 2018, she co-authored (with Éric Bothorel) a parliamentary report on digital taxation.[3]
In addition to her role in parliament, Karamanli has been serving as member of the French delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) since 2007. She is a member of the Committee on the Honouring of Obligations and Commitments by Member States of the Council of Europe (Monitoring Committee) and the Sub-Committee on External Relations. In this capacity, she has served as the Assembly's rapporteur on the access by detainees to a lawyer (2017)[4] and on the protection provided to victims of terrorism (since 2019).[5]
From 2014 until 2016, Karamanli served as General Rapporteur of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe on the Abolition of the death penalty.[6] In that role, she publicly condemned plans of the Russian State Duma to introduce capital punishment for certain crimes relating to terrorism in March 2015.[6]
Ahead of the 2020 French municipal elections, Karamanli ran against the outgoing mayor Stéphane Le Foll, the official PS candidate. As a consequence, Karamanli's membership in the Socialist Party was suspended for a year.[7]
In July 2019, Karamanli voted against the French ratification of the European Union’s Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) with Canada.[8]
