Italy’s Trump-aligned, national-conservative Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is holding her ground in the face of growing pressure from European globalists to escalate military involvement in Ukraine. At a recent summit in Kyiv on May 10, Meloni made a bold decision to attend remotely, rather than in person like some of her European counterparts. In the end, it was only French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz who gathered to show their unwavering support for Ukrainian President Zelensky, but Meloni’s absence spoke volumes about Italy’s independent approach to the ongoing conflict.
