Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni considered, on Wednesday, that French far-right leader Marine Le Pen is “on an interesting path,” stressing that she is working to create an alternative to the left through dialogue with several forces.
“In many files, alternative majorities have already been established [à esquerda] That is why the left feels so nervous,” the Italian Prime Minister explained in an interview with the newspaper Corriere della Sera.
Regarding possible alliances after the European elections, Meloni refused to be on one side: “I am on Italy’s side, and everything else does not concern me.”
Regarding the candidate for the presidency of the European Commission, Meloni confirmed: “I am coming from the majority, not from the candidate.”
He stressed: “I am working to build an alternative leftist majority, and there is a dialogue about this matter with various forces,” regarding possible coalitions after the European elections.
In response to a question about the alliance in Europe with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban (far right), the Italian Prime Minister confirmed that she is speaking in Europe “with everyone.”
He added: “I may not completely agree with everyone I talk to, but I will never agree with the idea that the E.U. [UE] He stressed that it is a club.
He added: “I believe that at a time like this, those who work for division are making a fundamental strategic mistake, and those who work for unity are more logical.”
French far-right leader Marine Le Pen aspires to a European parliamentary far-right union, so that the numbers can have an impact.
Le Pen, along with Meloni’s ally in the government, Matteo Salvini of the League, contributed to the expulsion of the Alternative for Germany party from the Identity and Democracy group in the European Parliament.
Le Pen is now looking for alliances with Meloni, head of the European Conservatives and Reformists, which is likely to be the group that will contribute a majority of representatives in the European Parliament.
European Parliament elections take place from June 6 to 9 in the 27 countries that make up the European Union, including Portugal.
