Italy's Meloni will welcome the G7 summit fortified by an EU vote that shook French, German leaders
IndependentJUN 2 2024
Meloni pledged to complete her five-year term without any cabinet changes, so this resignation may indicate that a political crisis looms, as a no-confidence vote is likely if she loses another minister. Additionally, by appointing Giuli, she has doubled down on her goal to use culture to promote her damaging far-right agenda.
Given Giorgia Meloni's popularity, and the fact that Italians are somewhat used to political sex scandals, the resignation of Sangiuliano is likely to close this case once and for all, as well as prevent any threats to the stability of the right-wing government. It's time to move on and let private matters be dealt with in private.
