Italy shifts to the right as voters reward Meloni’s party

A party with neo-fascist roots has won the most votes in Italy’s national election, setting the stage Monday for talks to create of the country’s first far-right-led government since World War II with Giorgia Meloni at the helm as Italy’s first woman premier.

The center-left Democratic Party and its allies had around 26% support, while the populist 5-Star Movement — which had been the biggest vote-getter in 2018 parliamentary election — saw its share of the vote halved to 15% this time around. The elections, which took place six months early after Draghi’s government collapsed, came at a crucial time for Europe as it faces Russia’s war in Ukraine and the related soaring energy costs that have hit ordinary Italians as well as industry.

Salvini has made clear he wants the League to recapture the interior minister post, where he once imposed a tough anti-migrant policy. But he may face an internal leadership challenge after the League suffered an abysmal result of under 10%, with Meloni’s party outperforming the League even in its northeastern stronghold.

Orban’s political director, Balazs Orban, was among the first to congratulate Meloni. “In these difficult times, we need more than ever friends who share a common vision and approach to Europe’s challenges,” he tweeted.
