    "We are determined to assert our interests, in the wake
    of the traditional friendship that binds us to the US,
    with loyalty but without subordination," she said in
    the interview in which she explained, among other things,
    that she had been "too many times the object of shameful
    sexist attacks, in the silence and indifference of those
    who talk a lot about women's rights.

    "I would say that I'm used to it by now but I don't want
    to say it, because we must not get used to things like this."

    . . .

    Meloni is the best egg in the EU basket at this point.

    My GUESS is that she's doing some backdoor deals with
    Trump that will give Italy an advantage over the more
    'socialist' EU nations during this trade war.
