Italian premier Giorgia Meloni will host this week’s summit of G7 nations as the most stable European Union leader.

Ms Meloni’s German and French counterparts were shaken by European parliamentary elections that fortified Ms Meloni’s far-right Brothers of Italy as the strongest in Italy, setting her up as a possible bridge maker, if not kingmaker, in Europe.
