“We can do it,” the US president replied, speaking to journalists. “At our meeting we talked about trade and other things. Georgia Melona made a real raid in Europe, “Donald Trump added.
“Some say that I promote Western nationalism. But when I talk about the West, I am not only referring to a geographical area, but to a culture, “the Italian prime minister then stressed.
At the same time, Meloni confirmed that the debate with Trump revolved around the economy, defense, space and energy. “Italy should increase energy imports and there is, of course, the nuclear energy, which we are trying to develop,” the head of the Rome government said.
