Italy’s Leader Giorgia Meloni Forms New Government

Giorgia Meloni on Friday formed Italy’s new ruling coalition, giving the country its first far-right-led government since the end of World War II and becoming the first woman tapped to serve as the country’s premier. Meloni’s Brothers of Italy, a party with neo-fascist roots, was the top vote-getter in Italy’s national election last month. Meloni co-founded the party in December 2012, and it was considered a fringe movement on the right during its first years. Berlusconi and Salvini are longtime admirers of Russian President Vladimir Putin; Meloni staunchly backs Ukraine in its defense against the Russian invasion. If that meant her government couldn’t be formed, Meloni said, she’d take that risk.
