Italy Prime Minister George Meloni is recognized as the most influential man in Europe according to Politico. The head of the Right Party "Brothers of Italy" over the last few years has made a stunning political breakthrough, turning from a marginal figure into one of the key players of European and world politics.
"Today, if you want to talk to Europe, a call to Meloni is an obvious choice. Even the figures such as Ilon Musk, the richest person in the world, and the adviser to the newly elected US President Donald Trump, they turn to the Italian prime minister to discuss strategic issues," Politico said.
Analysts of the publication indicate that the influence of Meloni is due to its ability to combine the radical ideas of her party with pragmatic policy in the international arena. Its leadership has become a symbol of a new era in European politics, where traditional approaches are inferior to politicians with a strong nationalist day.
