Politico: Meloni urged EU leaders not to confront Trump.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni urged her colleagues at a closed meeting of European Union (EU) leaders on January 22 not to confront U.S. President Donald Trump directly due to the risk of 'losing everything.' This was reported by Politico, citing sources.
'At the summit in Brussels on Thursday, Meloni told her European colleagues that fighting Trump is a bad idea, as Europe risks everything in the event of a conflict with America,' the report stated.
At the same time, Meloni urged partners to remain calm and not to view Trump as a 'crazy or unpredictable politician,' as some European officials had called him in private conversations.
