Overview
- Giorgia Meloni said she, ministers Guido Crosetto and Antonio Tajani, and Leonardo CEO Roberto Cingolani have been denounced to the International Criminal Court for alleged complicity in genocide, calling the filing unprecedented and surreal.
- She argued recent pro‑Palestine demonstrations tied to a CGIL strike showed planned violence, citing a lead banner praising the October 7 attack and rejecting the idea that incidents were due only to infiltrators.
- Meloni criticized the CGIL action as pretextual and politically aligned with the left, noting the union called more general strikes during her three years in office than during a decade of center‑left governments.
- She affirmed coalition stability and pointed to center‑right victories in 12 of 16 recent regional and autonomous‑province contests, while dismissing suggestions she seeks the presidency of the Republic.
- Reiterating her reform agenda, she promoted a referendum to separate judicial careers and said she hopes voters judge it on the merits.
