Giorgia Meloni has a realisation about the US president after he said she “begged” him for a photo at the G7 summit
Italy’s Meloni fires back after Trump says she ‘begged’ him for a photo
"Well, some things deserve an immediate response. Donald Trump's statements are completely fabricated; I am frankly appalled. I don’t know why the President of the United States behaves this way with his allies—it’s not the first time it’s happened. All I can say is that it’s disappointing he doesn’t show the same determination towards the enemies of the West, the enemies of the United States, with leaders towards whom he is much more accommodating. But one thing I and Italy must remember: we never beg."
Also if any Italian speakers watching this: do the English subtitles line up fairly well with the Italian speech timing wise? I killed like 3 forests trying to get this right as the sound of what she was saying didn't line up with the subtitles
Good to see pushback on Trump but Meloni is a fascist.

what is the migration policy that is radically far right?
According to ai:
As of June 2026, the Brothers of Italy (Fratelli d'Italia), led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, continues to pursue a hardline stance on migration. The party advocates for a zero-tolerance policy on illegal immigration, including measures such as naval blockades to prevent migrants from reaching Italian ports. Recent legislative proposals would allow authorities to impose a 30-day blockade on sea arrivals if there is a "serious threat to public order," such as exceptional migratory pressure or security concerns. The government is also pushing to revive a controversial migrant processing center in Albania, despite legal challenges and criticism from human rights groups .
At the same time, Meloni's government is balancing its tough approach with efforts to expand legal labor migration to address workforce shortages, signaling a pragmatic shift to welcome skilled workers while maintaining strict border controls . The party also supports policies aimed at boosting the birth rate of Italian nationals to reduce reliance on migrant labor .

what part is radically far right?
Not a legitimate source.
The ai was for me not you, shouldn’t you know what the radically far right policies are if you’re going to criticise her for them?
The problem with AI is that if you're using it, then you don't "know". It's probably more accurate than a ouija board, but that's a low bar.
I don't care, fascist bitch
Yes the translation is correct. I believe Trump, for what is worth. This fascist is a propaganda fabricator and a photo with Trump at the G7 is useful for her to keep in her pocket, given her electorate.
