What's the real influence of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in Brussels? What's her negotiation strategy ahead of the nomination of EU top jobs? In this episode, we explore how Meloni is working in Brussels to secure Italy an important position of power in the future institutional setup. We also examine how the Greens at the European Parliament are planning to be part of the new governing majority and how they intend to work with the centre-right European People's Party and 'save' the Green Deal. We took a closer look at a new regulation that might have an impact on how we use WhatsApp ...

With 30 seats, the National Rally now holds the largest representation in the European Parliament across all parties and nationalities. At the political group level, however, the far-right group Identity and Democracy (ID) finished fifth in the European elections, while the European People's Party (EPP) remains the largest faction. Jean-Paul Garraud, the chair of the National Rally delegation to the European Parliament, who spoke to Euronews on the Radio Schuman podcast, said that their large group represents a rise in sovereignty across Europe. According to Garraud, European voters have reali...

A fight broke out in Italy’s Parliament during a vote on the government’s controversial bill which could give Italy’s regions greater autonomy. The brawl erupted on Wednesday after Leonardo Donno, a member of the opposition Five Star Movement, handed an Italian flag to the minister of Regional Affairs, Roberto Calderoli. As two clerks attempted to separate Donno from Calderoli, lawmakers from the League and Brothers of Italy parties, part of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s ruling coalition, joined the scuffle. Leonardo Donno was subsequently transported out of the chamber in a wheelchair by pa...

A gigantic “Grazie” appeared in the background as Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni came up on stage at Rome's Parco dei Principi hotel right after the first results on Sunday confirmed her Fratelli d’Italia party as Italy’s leading political force. Indeed, she has reasons to be thankful, and one thing is certain: the “just write Giorgia” slogan paid off. The decision to encourage Italians to vote for her as the lead candidate — despite her showing no interest in going to Brussels as an MEP — has allowed her party to win the elections by a landslide, with nearly 29% of the vote. Meloni aimed to s...

The upcoming European elections could tip the balance between Giorgia Meloni’s mainstream foreign policy and domestic far-right agenda. In less than two years leading the EU’s third-largest economy, the Italian Premier has emerged as the most powerful far-right-wing leader in Europe. However, her pro-Ukraine and Israel policies have proven reassuring to centrist allies in America and the rest of Europe – with Italy preparing to host G7 leaders in June. The European elections between June 6-9 could tip this balancing act. “I think there are two Melonis, and the Meloni that is getting more atten...

Italy has long had one of the lowest birth rates in the EU, and the country is ageing at a much faster rate than other member states, and it appears to be getting worse. According to government statistics, the average number of children per Italian woman has dropped from 1.24 in 2022 to 1.2 in 2023. Experts say that if the country's population crisis continues, Italy’s population of 59 million could fall by almost 1 million by 2030. And the effects of the crisis are already being felt, with the ageing of the population causing problems for Italy's healthcare and pension systems. Addressing the...

The Brothers of Italy’s conference in Pescara was more than a party gathering to launch Meloni’s electoral campaign. The event marks a key moment in the run-up to the European elections in June, with the Italian prime minister’s address last Sunday providing crucial insight into her conservative leadership in Europe and her EU goals. At the event, she announced that voters should use just her first name on their ballots. “Call me Giorgia,” she said. The move is legal, and while many, including her rivals, have criticised her decision, it aligns with her image as a leader with working-class roo...

Italy’s Senate has passed legislation which allows regions to permit groups “with a qualified experience supporting motherhood” to have access to women considering abortions at public clinics. For the right-wing government, the amendment fulfils the original intent of the 1978 law legalising abortion, known as Law 194, which includes provisions to prevent the procedure and support motherhood. But some in the medical profession have questioned the wisdom of allowing medically unqualified, anti-abortion groups access to women considering the procedure. “Then you don't understand how you want to ...
