Giorgia Meloni "has passed the pudding test" for the US government. A year ago, the center-right's victory in Italy caused concern, if not fear, even at the White House. Today, Jack Markell, the United States' new ambassador to Italy, remarks that "the facts have shown" how strong the connection between Washington and Rome has remained. In sum, the Americans have "tasted" the new Italian CEO and are pleased. This is what Markell says in his first interview with Corriere della Sera. According to the ambassador, "Prime Minister Meloni recently returned from a very successful visit to the Oval Office. Our ties with Italy have always been extremely strong. Perhaps because the United States has 18 million individuals of Italian heritage. Every year, 6 million Americans visit Italy, which has once again proven to be a loyal ally. And Giorgia Meloni has undoubtedly proven to be strong supporter of Ukraine".
