Italy's proposed "Meloni fiscal policy," endorsed by the French right and far right, exhibits signs of an illiberal trend
In a recent article, French writer Emmanuel Carrère has shown sympathy for Giorgia Meloni, the newly appointed Prime Minister of Italy. Carrère, known for his insightful observations, has focused on Meloni's entertaining side and expressive gestures, as well as her unique appearance, particularly her light blue dress and playful roughness.
Meloni, who took office on October 22, 2022, has led her marginal political family to the heart of power. Her political success has garnered attention and acceptance among the powerful, and her international image is a source of hope for French right-wingers.
However, Meloni's political family has a direct link to fascism, as she openly admired Benito Mussolini in her youth. Her political party is considered far-right by some, but Carrère chose to focus on her positive qualities in his article.
Carrère also questioned whether he would feel the same about Marine Le Pen, a French politician with similar political views, as a foreigner. This question reflects the complexities of evaluating political leaders, especially when considering cultural and national contexts.
Despite these complexities, Carrère's sympathetic portrayal of Meloni highlights the potential for understanding and connection across political divides. As Meloni navigates her new role as Prime Minister, her actions and decisions will continue to be closely watched and analysed by both supporters and critics.
