Standing in Rotonda, Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni was a privileged guest at the inauguration of President Trump.
Last month, the only European leader to attend the program shares many conservative, nationalist property of Mr Meloni Mr. Trump. He is friendly with his billionaire adviser Elon Musk. Many of his supporters hope that the Italian leader’s special relationship with Mr Trump will reinforce Italy’s standing and his own standing.
But even when Ms Meloni joined in joining for the new US president, Mr. Trump faced only moments in reminding him and others for Europe’s rights. There may be as much as an ally.
In his inaugural address, Mr Trump said, “I, very straightforward, will keep America first.” “We will pay rates and taxes to foreign countries to strengthen our citizens.”
Since then, Mr Trump has warned that he will slap Europe at prices “Very quickly,” Increasing a similar war that many European people feel in the right side, which are known to be its natural allies.
Although Mr Trump has promised to respond to someone because he prefers US interests, many nationalist parties in Europe pledge to do the same for their own countries. Mr Trump’s threats are in the hearts of his own agendas, and he can hurt the basic circles on which nationalist parties have increased their appeal.
The potential tensions around the trade have highlighted some of the basic contradictions that may emerge from the international coalition of nationalists, with questions whether their friendship can cope with the confrontation of competitive interests. Leaders are also worried about the US withdrawal from European security, and threatens Mr Trump’s allies that do not meet military spending goals.
“Helping a boy who has a negative impact on your country,” said Renab Libby, the general secretary of the right national rally in the French National Assembly.
The president of the national rally, Jordan Bardilla, said last month that he respects Mr Trump and is impressed how he is filling the planes with Colombian exiles and if he does not let them land, he is the prices of the country. Threats from.
But he also painted Mr. Trump as an existent threat to France and Europe. Whatever revenue on French agriculture, Mr Trump will hurt French farmers – which is not supported by Mr Bardella.
“If we do not defend our interests, we will disappear,” he said at a news conference last week.
The coolness was different from the reaction of Mr Trump’s national rally about the last elections in 2017, when former party president, Marine Le Pen, officially praised him, and hope to go to the Trump Tower in New York – Failed – went to Syria to collide. Opening of it.
Mr Babi said it was very useful for the national rally that Mr Trump should be enhanced by the anti -immigration agenda globally in 2017. Now, the growing nationalist parties in Europe do not need so much services of President Trump.
Mr Libby added that President Trump’s style can stop many French voters. He said, “This is not our culture.
If anything, too much affiliation with Mr Trump can threaten the long and fast successful strategy of the national rally to make the party’s image “unannounced” and expand his appeal to French voters. –
“Today, Trump is a fundamental aspect of Trumpism,” said Maya Kandel, a researcher who studied the right to link in the United States and its relations at the University of Sorbon, Paris. “They don’t know whether they want to be part of it or they want to stick to their usual plan.”
Nevertheless, as much as Mr Trump has created panic among his allies, his victory has given birth to the right -wing parties of Europe, which he promotes the conservative plan he promotes.
Some, like the alternative to Germany, has accepted the verification of Mr. Trump’s right -handed man, Mr. Musk, which he hopes he will gain a new height and legal status.
The party, whose parts have been classified by German intelligence agencies as extremists, have seen only a slight clash in the elections after Mr Musk’s confirmation, and may not be related to their efforts. Recent polling Three -quarters of German Mr. Musk’s efforts to affect the German elections are “unacceptable”.
The same survey revealed that 71 percent of respondents in Germany and the UK have a negative view of the respondents, where Mr Musk has also interfered with political debate.
For this moment, Mr. Trump’s biggest impact could be in imitation of his plans, as the gathering of right -wing parties in Madrid under the banner this weekend has shown, “Make Europe again great “”
Participants are expected to include Hungarian Prime Minister Victor and Ban. Ms. Lee Pen of France; And Matu Salvini, whose league party is part of the governing coalition of Ms Meloni. They are sure to overcome Mr Trump’s new presidency.
But under a confident dress, Mr Trump actually prevents the hidden uncertainty on what it means for Europe.
Ms Meloni’s allies hope to mediate between the United States and Europe in trade talks. “We want to be a bridge,” Italian Foreign Minister, Antonio Tajani told the newspaper Corrie Della Sierra on Monday.
Experts have warned that if he tried to play the role of Trump’s Vapor Meloni, he would also be squeezed between a notorious client US president and the European Union, if relations would become more opposed to.
In the event of a controversy, it will be difficult for Ms Meloni to join Mr Trump, focusing on Italian foreign relations in Nice, said Jean -Pierre Darns of Kot de Azor University in Nice.
Italy is the founding member of the European Union, and depends on the European Union, which depends on its largest trading partner and in the aftermath of billions of time recovery.
“This is the first EU,” said Mr Darns. “Then you deal with the US”
Benino Arddy, senior fellow of the Atlantic Council’s Translantic Security Initiative, said it doesn’t matter how much it has benefited Ms Meloni and Mr Trump, political affiliation hardly maintains relationships with anyone like Trump. Can, which usually accepted a transaction. The point for a foreign relationship.
Mr Arddy said, “Their relationships” can benefit Meloni some meters on the initial line, “but that’s not enough.”
This can be particularly true if Italy’s own interests are on line.
According to a study by the Italian consulting firm, Prometia, Italy will cost 4 to 7 billion euros to increase US revenue on Italian products.
Mr Trump has threatened to take retaliation against European countries that do not fulfill NATO’s promises for its militants. Italy is much lower than the unofficial affiliation of 2 % on the defense of its 1.5 % of its production – and even more than 5 % of Mr Trump has demanded.
Ms Meloni’s close proximity to Mr Musk has also criticized her opponents, who were rush to indicate that in the past, other countries have been upset against foreign actors who interfere with domestic politics.
In Italy, Mr. Musk’s Space X has long been discussing a possible contract to provide safe communications for government and military officials through a star link.
But when news came out about the star link talks, the opposition accused Ms Meloni of building a satellite move with Mr Musk at the expense of a satellite move.
Ms Meloni defended herself by saying that she was just looking for this possibility and for now, Mr. Musk’s satellites had no alternative.
At the same news conference, he encountered a number of questions about his relations with Mr Musk and interference in the politics of other countries.
So far, Ms Meloni has defended her allies.
He cited billionaire US investor and long -term Democratic Donor, “George Soros,” whose support for liberal reasons has made him a boogie of truth. “I consider it a dangerous intervention.”
