Prime Minister of Italy

When Meloni became the Prime Minister in 2022, many people got worried. They thought she would try to turn Italy into a fascist state. Giorgia thinks Mussolini was the best politician in her homeland in the last five decades. She mentions the old Italian fascist slogan "God, fatherland and family" in her speeches. However, Meloni accentuates the fact that her current beliefs don't mean taking a step back in history. She allegedly advocates a more modern and moderate ideology.

She supports Taiwan and criticizes China. She believes in the power and importance of NATO. Previously, she thought Italy could benefit from withdrawing from the eurozone.

Until 2022, Meloni used to approve of Vladimir Putin's policies. In her autobiography book, she stated that this politician stood for Christian identity and European values. After the Russian-Ukrainian conflict broke out, Giorgia switched to Atlanticism.

Meloni has developed a curious stance toward feminism. She thinks women need to be empowered. But she considers the feministic movement an ideological instrument against right-wing politics.

She doesn't like that the LGBTQ movement is becoming widespread. She wants Italy to welcome fewer migrants.

Giorgia identifies herself as a woman, a mother, an Italian and a Christian. Nevertheless, she has never been officially married. Her partner's name is Andrea Giambruno. He's a journalist and he doesn't share his better half's political viewpoints. He works for the Mediaset TV channel that belongs to Silvio Berlusconi.
