French President Emmanuel Macron hosts Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in Paris for the first time since she was elected last year. On the agenda are the war in Ukraine, NATO and bilateral relations, but the visit comes as France and Italy have clashed over migration issues.
This is Meloni's first official visit to France since she came to power in autumn 2022 as part of a hard-right coalition - Italy's most right-wing government in decades.
