G7: Meloni enjoys her spectacular ascendance

Brindisi, Italy 13.06.2024 Welcoming the Group of Seven leaders in a luxurious Puglia resort of Borgo Egnazia, in Fasano, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni visibly enjoyed her role of a generous, and warmhearted hostess. As she offers hospitality for the three-day G7 Summit, Meloni has every reason to enjoy the event, unlike her guests, whose prospects are uncertain in view of the impending elections that could change their political fate.

Meloni, who represents a conservative right in the political spectrum has demonstrated a spectacular ascendence, winning the European elections. Fratelli party, she leads, won last week’s European parliamentary elections in Italy with 28.8% of the vote. This disposition ensures her political future as a successful and promising European leader, with a great potential.

In contrast with Meloni’s her guests are not so fortunate, starting with European Commission President Ursula Von Der Leyen, who seeks the second mandate, but does not enjoy the level of support from the behalf of the EU leaders, who should agree to accept her claim at the EU Council meeting.

The U.S. fading President Joe Biden ­­faces has both health and a political challenges in November struggle for the White House with a Republican candidate, while more than two thirds of Americans prefer him to retire, taking into consideration his age, and related problems.

British Prime Minster Rishi Sunak’s Conservative party is at high risk of losing grip on power in the upcoming UK elections on July 4.

However the worst is the situation of the French President Emmanuel Macron, who lost the sympathies of his compatriots in the European elections, and as a result has called snap parliamentary elections for June 30, and July 7 following far-right successes of Marine le Pen party, winning more than double votes. The prospects of the imposition of the Prime minister from the opposition in so-called “co-habitation” are real, and humiliating.

Japan’s Fumio Kishida faces a corruption scandal in his own party. His approval ratings are down to 17% – the worst in over a decade.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is dramatically unpopular in Canada, which will vote by next year at the latest.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who lost a lot of votes in the EU elections, faces criticism from the citizens, descending in the EU poll, and he will also stand in the elections in 2025.

Concluding the unfortunate situation for the majority of the participants, one concludes that Meloni might be the only political figure with a firm standing among her counterparts, and she has every reason to enjoy event. Her pink sartorial look undoubtfully symbolises hopes for bright political future.
