Meloni's Government Becomes Longest-Lasting in Italy's Postwar History
· World · The Hindu, Times of India, Euronews
Giorgia Meloni's right-wing government in Italy has become the longest-lasting in the country's postwar history, marking 1,413 days in power. Meloni celebrated the milestone with a rally in Bari, attended by thousands of supporters. The event also served as an election rally ahead of the 2027 vote. Meloni's government has avoided the crises and defections that toppled past administrations. The government claims achievements such as increased employment and reduced personal income taxes, although critics argue that wages have not risen and job insecurity has increased.
Why it matters
This development highlights Meloni's stability in Italian politics and her government's efforts to maintain control amidst past political turmoil. It also sets the stage for the upcoming 2027 elections, where her party's performance will be closely watched.
