Sunday’s day
Giorgia Meloni is preparing to bring together the task force of ministers to evaluate, sector by sector, the repercussions of the US duties on Italian productions. There will be Giancarlo Giorgetti (Economy), Adolfo Urso (companies), Francesco Lollobrigida (agriculture) and Tommaso Foti (European affairs), in addition to vice premier.
Then, with Matteo Salvini and Antonio Tajani, he should have a small meeting, in which the subsequent moves could take shape, from the protections for the categories most affected to a possible mission to Washington on which, behind the maximum reserve, diplomatic interlocutions and evaluations of political opportunity are underway. The summit between the leaders would arrive in the aftermath of the Opa launched by the League player on the Interior Ministry, welcomed by the frost of Fi but above all of Fdi. Fibrillations on which Meloni flys over in his video message to the League congress, ensuring that “we will go forward belly to the ground until the end of the legislature”, respecting the “Punto per Punto program”, including premiered, reform of justice and differentiated autonomy.
In the majority, however, it also circulates a plan B, with early elections (the idea would be an election day with policies and regional in spring 2026), if the internal and international tensions were to continue, and the necessity in perspective of unpopular measures that would put the government’s consent later at risk. Which, however, underlines the premier can “count again on the consent of the majority of Italians after two and a half years”. The mission to Washington may instead enter the short -term calendar. According to various sources it could be placed in the first half of Easter Week, before the arrival of the American vice president JD Vance in Rome. From the White House a maximum availability would have arrived to schedule the bilateral with Donald Trump, and for this reason the intergovernmental summit with Turkey is not yet officially confirmed, scheduled for April 16 and 17. But in -depth reflections are underway on the journey. From the Melonians for days he filters the belief that, if the leader will fly to the USA, it will be to exercise that role of bridge between Washington and Brussels predicted in recent months. It is not said, however, that they thus see some European partners such as France, Germany and Spain. And in government environments the theme is treated with the utmost caution, without hiding the risk of bilateral in the oval study precisely on the days when the EU (15) will launch the countermeasures to the duties on steel and aluminum.
