Prime Minister Meloni: “Having a common enemy is not the same as having common ideas”
“I think I made a coherent choice, not on my positions, but with respect to the European elections.

He says this to Corriere della Sera the prime minister Georgia Melonijustifying his choice to align the Italian government against the encore of Ursula Von der Leyen to the presidency of the European Commission.

The president said things that we agree with, especially on immigration, confirming the change of pace that has been achieved thanks above all to Italian work. But she also said things that, both in method and in substance, did not make the vote possible. Brothers of Italy“.

EU, Meloni: “We will continue to collaborate with Von der Leyen”
With von der Leyen “We have collaborated up to now and will continue to do so in the future. We are people who have responsibilities and understand their weight. Italy depends on European choices, but Europe also depends on Italy because we are not a province of the empire. We are one of the founding countries”, he adds.

EU, Meloni: “Fitto commissioner? I don’t start from the name but from the delegation”
Will be Raffaele Fitto The European Commissioner of Italy? “I don’t start from the name, but from the delegation. When we understand, as I hope, what kind of matter could be entrusted to Italy, we will identify, together with the majority, also the person who we believe is best. Our priority is the delegations of an economic, industrial, competitiveness, cohesion nature, which allow us to help Italy and Europe”, he explains Melons to the Courier.
USA, Meloni: “Republicans are my allies but I worked very well with Biden”
“I am the leader of a European party which also has among its allies the Republican Party. What my political affinities are in the American system is evident and everyone knows it. This has not prevented me from working very well with the administration Biden. I would continue to do so if Biden were confirmed, just as I would work well with a new administration. Trump. For me, what matters is the solidity of the alliance with the United States,” Meloni says.
Center-left, Meloni: “Renzi? Having a common enemy is not like having common ideas”

I can only say that I have always thought that having a common enemy is not the same as having common ideas. If you do that you can win but, as we have seen, then you cannot govern”, explains the prime minister, commenting on the appeal made by Matthew Renzi to all progressive forces to bring down his government.
Budget, Meloni: “Priority from September, everything possible to support income”

EU, Meloni: “Europe has often lacked vision and determination”
“Europe has often lacked, above all, politics, which is vision and decision. The reason why things risk not working in the coming years is that the method chosen to indicate the top positions of the EU can compromise both things. If you try to put together everything and the opposite of everything, allying political forces that do not think the same way on anything, you risk not having a clear vision”, concludes the Prime Minister in the interview with Courier.
