Analysts say she secured herself as kingmaker in the European Parliament. Giorgia Meloni&#8217;s far-right Fratelli d&#8217;Italia, or Brothers of Italy, secures victory in Italy after receiving over 28% of the votes, according to an exit poll released by the Italian RAI. The victory would give her a domestic boost while positioning her as one of the most powerful figures in the European Union. The centre-left opposition PD earned 23% of votes, followed by the populist Five Star Movement, which received 10% of support, a seven-point decrease from the 2019 election.<\/p>\n<p>Meloni&#8217;s junior partners, Forza Italia and the Lega party led by Eurosceptic politician Matteo Salvini, had a mixed showing. The far-right Lega received about 8% of the votes, a sharp drop from its 2019 result when it won 34.3% for a total of 29 seats. The overwhelming support for Brothers of Italy compared to Forza Italia and Lega &#8220;confirms the trend that the Italian centre-right is very sensitive to internal leadership changes within the coalition,&#8221; Francesco Sismondini, election polls analyst, told Euronews.<\/p>\n<p>Andrea Renda, director of research at the Centre for European Policy Studies, told Euronews that tensions could arise in the governing coalition amid the disparity in party results. &#8220;The other parties will realise they are losing consensus the more they stay in power with Fratelli d&#8217;Italia,&#8221; Renda said. Meloni has been named the kingmaker of the elections as both European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen of the centre-right European People&#8217;s Party and France&#8217;s far-right Marine Le Pen courted her for support.<\/p>\n<p>Le Pen sought Meloni&#8217;s backing to unite the EU&#8217;s far-right parties. In Parliament, they are currently split between Identity and Democracy (ID), which Le Pen&#8217;s National Rally is part of, and Meloni&#8217;s European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR). Von der Leyen needed Meloni&#8217;s backing as she sought to secure her second term as president of the European Commission. Throughout the campaign, the Commission chief reiterated her trust in Meloni as a credible partner in Brussels. Meloni proved her pro-EU and pro-Ukraine stances, moving away from her Eurosceptic views in her initial days in office.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/my-europe\/2024\/06\/10\/italy-pm-meloni-established-as-kingmaker-as-party-secures-win-in-elections\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/italy-pm-meloni-established-as-kingmaker-as-party-secures-win-in-elections\/\">Italy: PM Meloni established as kingmaker as party secures win in elections<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[555,14859,6014],"class_list":["post-131362","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-csr-news-en","tag-kingmaker","tag-meloni"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131362","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131362"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131362\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131362"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=131362"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=131362"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
