That’s the upshot of the report that Italy’s premier, Giorgia Meloni, is “furious,” as the Financial Times puts it, that her conservative coalition is “being left out” of the negotiations over who will occupy top leadership positions in the European Union’s government. Signora Meloni getting frozen out is especially galling after her fellow right-wing parties jolted the continent’s liberal establishment with a strong showing in the EU parliament voting.
