During his last term Trump called Europe a “foe” of the US.
This time, Meloni has the potential to turn that around thanks in part to their mutual friend Elon Musk.
Musk, Trump and Meloni dined together at French President Emmanuel Macron’s 60-person dinner after the official reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris last weekend, an experience Trump later told The New York Post was positive.
“There is an opportunity for Meloni to take the initiative and be a bridge between the Trump administration and Europe,” he said.
“I think her attitude will change with the arrival of President Trump, who will convince her,” Bannon said.
