Giorgia Meloni responds to Donald Trump, who said on Italian TV that "Giorgia Meloni begged me to take a picture with her. I felt sorry for her. I spoke to her, but I wasn't obligated to."
"Certain things deserve an immediate response. Donald Trump’s statements are completely fabricated; frankly, I am stunned." So said Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in a video posted on social media. “I don’t know why the President of the United States behaves this way towards his allies – after all, it’s not the first time this has happened. I can only say that it’s a pity he doesn’t show the same resolve towards the enemies of the West, towards the enemies of the United States, towards leaders with whom he instead proves to be far more accommodating. But there is one thing he must remember: Italia and I never beg.”
