The meeting was scheduled during a phone call between the leaders
US President Joe Biden invited Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to visit the White House in July.
The US government communicated that the meeting had been scheduled during a telephone conversation between the two leaders which took place last Monday (26).
Although the month has been announced, the date of the trip of the head of the Italian government has not yet been communicated.
In the call, Biden and Meloni reaffirmed their support for Ukraine and discussed recent events in North Africa. The premier also spoke of Rome’s commitment to the Mediterranean.
Again according to the White House, the talks took place “in the context of close collaboration” between the United States and its allies and partners “after recent events in Russia”, such as the crisis triggered by mercenaries from the Wagner group.
Meloni’s visit had already been scheduled since the beginning of the month, when the Italian foreign minister, Antonio Tajani, went to Washington. On the occasion, the Chancellor said that the two countries are linked by “strong ties”.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said he “admired” Meloni’s “strong leadership” and praised Italy’s actions regarding the conflict in Ukraine. .
