Rome, 14 April (LaPresse) – "We are and remain sincere supporters of Western unity and staunch allies of the United States, but this unity is built on mutual loyalty, respect and candour. We are used to speaking our minds because that is what serious people do. Until now, President Trump regarded Giorgia Meloni as a courageous person. He was not wrong, because she is a woman who never shies away from speaking her mind. And regarding Pope Leo XIV, she said exactly what all of us Italian citizens think. The Prime Minister and the Government defend, and will always defend, only Italy’s interests.” So said Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani in X.
