Rome, Mar 28 (LaPresse) – Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, in an interview with the Financial Times, dismissed as “childish” and “superficial” the idea that Italy must choose between the United States and Europe, insisting she will do whatever is necessary to defend her country’s interests. “I am a conservative. Trump is a Republican leader. Of course, I am closer to him than to many others, but I understand a leader who defends their national interests,” Meloni said. “I defend mine.”
