Italian-US political ties strain under Meloni's leadership

    
• Giorgia Meloni was seen as a link between the European Union and the Trump administration.
• Meloni's relations with Trump and his entourage have changed.
• Italy is struggling with issues of migration and organized crime.

Giorgia Meloni, the Prime Minister of Italy, was seen as a key link between the European Union and Donald Trump's administration. However, as noted by Mateusz Mazzini, these relations have cooled. Despite her popularity among Trump supporters, Meloni now faces new political challenges.

- It's a dynamic social arrangement that changes practically from week to week. Elon Musk, now outside the White House, recently chose to meet with Matteo Salvini's League instead of Meloni's party, - points out Mazzini.

Elon Musk, who previously supported Meloni, has now focused on collaborating with Matteo Salvini's League. This shift has impacted the dynamics of relations between Italy and the USA. Musk, as a special guest at Meloni's party youth conference, was seen as an idol of the Italian right-wing, which has now changed.

Italy is grappling with a growing migration problem, affecting the country's social and political situation. The plan to relocate migrants to Albania has failed, and organized crime, including African mafias, is gaining importance. The increase in migration from sub-Saharan Africa is leading to a rise in crime in southern Italy.

Although Meloni supports Ukraine, she opposes Italy's involvement in a possible peacekeeping mission. This stance is controversial in the context of Trump's policies and his supporters, who often criticize actions supporting Ukraine.

The Italian Prime Minister faces many challenges, including the necessity of finding a solution to the migration problem. Italy planned to build relocation centres in Albania, but this project encountered legal and organizational obstacles. The rise in crime related to migration remains one of the country's main issues.
