American edition of Politico published an annual ranking of the most influential politicians in Europe.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to Politico.
This year, the winner of the nomination was Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. According to journalists, in less than ten years, the leader of the right-wing Brothers of Italy party, Giorgia Meloni, has gone from being released as an ultra-nationalist fraudster to being elected Prime Minister of Italy and establishing herself as a figure with whom Brussels and now Washington can do business.
Meloni made headlines around the world when she became Italy’s first female prime minister, but few predicted she would last long. Experts expected infighting to inevitably split her ruling coalition of right-wing parties, and there was “little appetite” for her in Brussels.
“After years of putting up with the antics of Hungarian leader Viktor Orban, top EU officials were unenthusiastic about the arrival of a leader who campaigned on the theme of ‘God, homeland and family’ and formed a government from parties sympathetic to Russian President Vladimir Putin,” the paper wrote.
Over the past two years, Meloni has cemented her government as one of the most stable in post-war Italy. Although the country is burdened with public debt, the economic outlook is not so dire as to scare off foreign investors.
And Trump has released a perfume with a provocative name: how much does the “presidential” fragrance cost?
