What is happening
According to AGI, Meloni’s government is the 68th since the founding of the Republic and the first led by a woman. Meloni said the milestone reflected political stability and a united coalition, while acknowledging that work remained. The government’s record follows a legislature marked by policies on security, immigration, welfare, taxation and foreign relations, as well as disagreements within the governing coalition and disputes with opposition parties and foreign governments.
Why is it on the Radar?
The milestone places the current government first in the historical ranking for longevity among Italian republican governments. It also provides the basis for Meloni’s claim that the coalition has maintained stability since taking office, although the sources also report political frictions and setbacks during its term.
