Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni made a surprise trip to Florida to meet with Donald Trump late Saturday.

“This is very exciting. I’m here with a fantastic woman, the prime minister of Italy,” Trump said, adding that she “has really taken Europe by storm.”
Meloni is expected to be a close ally of Trump given her conservative credentials and the stability of the right-wing coalition she has led in Italy since late 2022. Meloni has also forged a close relationship with billionaire tech CEO Elon Musk, a close ally of his Trump.
