Berlusconi's heir?/ Rama: Giorgia Meloni is the descendant of a tiger, not

Silvio Berlusconi and Giorgia Meloni

Prime Minister Edi Rama has spoken about the Prime Minister of Italy, Giorgia Meloni, with whom he has shown many times that he maintains friendly relations.

In an interview with the Italian media "Libero", Rama said that Meloni has amazing communication skills as a seasoned European.

"On the international scene, Giorgia has surprised everyone, I would say alla grande, because while they were waiting for a fascist monster that would march on Europe, they found themselves in front of a woman with amazing communication skills as a European, since now he has not said anything wrong. Right, left, fascism, socialism make sense when we talk about history, but looking for their early meaning in today's politics can trip us over our feet. Yes, I am a socialist, convinced of the Third Way of Clinton, Blair, Schroeder, Romano Prodi. But being leftist does not prevent me from making choices that can then be interpreted as rightist, just as not all that bear the stamp of leftist choices are pills to be swallowed while singing "Bella Ciao"! And then, in the age of new technology, Artificial Intelligence, globalization, there is a risk of drowning in a glass of water by mixing old concepts with dramatic problems to solve. We must reinvent all that is possible and reinvent ourselves tenaciously in a world that is changing without even breathing.”, he expressed.

The head of the government also stopped at the former Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, whom he stated that he knew very little, but remembers him as a smiling man.

"I knew him very little, but I remember him smiling. And I have re-listened and read several times the speech of the archbishop at his funeral, an extremely beautiful address for a man who, let's say using a euphemism, was not the easiest subject for a priest. From the few meetings I have had with him, I have created the feeling of a man who had a genuine sensitivity towards others" , Rama emphasized.

He was asked by the media of the neighboring country whether he sees Giorgia Meloni as an heir to Berlusconi.
