Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni met US President Donald Trump at the White House. In a bilateral meeting held in the Oval Office, followed by a closed-door lunch in the cabinet room, the two leaders answered questions from the pool of White House reporters and Italian journalists, reaffirming their close understanding and relationship.
Trump accepted an invitation by the Italian premier for an official visit to Rome "in the near future", an occasion, Meloni says, to relaunch dialogue between Washington and Brussels. Meloni says the US president during his Italy visit may also consider to meet with EU representatives.
