President Trump Hosting Italian PM Meloni at Mar-a-Lago Tonight


President Trump will reportedly meet with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

Multiple outlets report that Meloni is flying to the United States on Saturday.

Per Bloomberg:

Meloni’s visit comes days before she is scheduled to receive President Joe Biden, who begins a trip to Rome and the Vatican on Jan. 9, in what will likely be his final presidential mission overseas.

Foreign leaders who have visited Trump since the election include Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada, President Javier Milei of Argentina and Prime Minister Viktor Orban of Hungary.

The meeting, expected late Saturday at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, could be an opportunity to address the case of Cecilia Sala, the Italian journalist detained by Iran last month.

CNN reports:

President-elect Donald Trump will host Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni at his Mar-a-Lago Club tonight, two people familiar with the meeting tell CNN.

Meloni is a key world leader to watch as Trump prepares to take office, given her key relationships with figures in his orbit, including Elon Musk.

Meloni, Trump and Musk dined together previously in Paris during the reopening of the Notre Dame cathedral.

Trump’s team declined to confirm the meeting, but spokesperson Steven Cheung said, “We don’t discuss meetings that may or may not have happened, but it’s no surprise world leaders have reached out to President Trump after his historic win to develop better relations with the United States.”

Meloni rode a wave of far-right sentiment to power in 2022 and has pursued a highly conservative social agenda while leading a popular governing coalition in Italy.
