New Delhi: Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has slammed the global Left and for what she called as their “hysteria” and hypocrisy over painting spectres about the global rise of conservative leaders.
Bracketing herself, Prime Minister Narendra Modi with US President Donald Trump and Argentina President Javier Milei, Meloni attacked the Left its “double standards”
“When Bill Clinton and Tony Blair created the global leftist liberal network in the 90s, they were called statesmen. Today, when (US President Donald) Trump, Meloni, (Argentina President Javier) Milei or maybe (Prime Minister Narendra) Modi talk, they are called a threat to democracy,” said Meloni while addressing the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in the US via video link, reported The Indian Express.
“This is the Left’s double standard, but we are used to it, and the good news is people no longer believe in their lies, despite all the mud they throw at us. Citizens keep voting for us,” added Meloni.
Meloni said that “conservatives keep on growing, are becoming more and more influential in European politics, and that is why the Left is nervous and with Trump’s victory, their irritation has turned into hysteria, not only because conservatives are winning, but because conservatives are now collaborating globally”.
“We defend freedom, we love our nations, we want secure borders, we preserve businesses and citizens from the green Leftist insanity and we defend family life… We fight against wokeism…and we stand for common sense,” said Meloni, while citing why people vote for conservative leaders.
Trump, who also addressed the conference said that a “new and lasting political majority” will be forged that will drive American politics “for generations to come.”
