"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.
