Arianna Meloni Faces Political Storm

Published: 2024-09-14

Arianna Meloni, sister of Italy's Prime Minister, is navigating a turbulent political landscape.

Amidst allegations of judicial conspiracies against the government and accusations of meddling in state broadcaster RAI appointments, Meloni remains defiant.

She dismisses rumors surrounding her separation from Minister Francesco Lollobrigida, emphasizing his competence as the reason for his ministerial role.

Meloni also addresses the resignation of former Culture Minister Gennaro Sangiuliano, attributing it to personal reasons blown out of proportion by the media.

As the political head of Fratelli d'Italia, she is set to lead the party's campaign in the upcoming regional elections in Emilia-Romagna, aiming to capture votes from moderates and abstainers.
