Meloni, the leader of the conservative populist Brothers of Italy party since 2014, was elected prime minister in 2022. She ran her campaign on a pro-family, anti-illegal immigration agenda.
During the dinner on Saturday night, Trump praised Meloni for having “taken Europe by storm.”
“This is very exciting,” Trump stated. “I’m here with a fantastic woman, the prime minister of Italy. She’s really taken Europe by storm.”
