Giorgia Meloni Sets Record as Italy's Longest-Serving Prime Minister Since WWII
- Giorgia Meloni's government has surpassed Silvio Berlusconi's previous record of 1,412 days, marking a significant milestone in Italian politics.
- Her administration is characterized by fiscal conservatism and a hard-line immigration policy, but faces challenges from a fragmented political landscape ahead of the 2027 elections.
- In July, the lower house of parliament approved a contentious electoral reform aimed at providing greater stability, which critics argue could help Meloni maintain power.
