Italian PM Meloni's 'death stare' at Macron

[Social Media]

 

The two leaders differed on the inclusion of the word 'abortion' in the summit's final statement. The video clip from Friday shows Macron going down a line, shaking the hands of Italian President Sergio Mattarella and his daughter, first lady of Italy Laura Mattarella, before arriving at Meloni. 

 

As Macron makes his way down the line, Meloni can be seen giving a frosty "death stare" at Macron. When the French leader arrives, she appears to force a smile as the two shake hands. The exchange came after the two leaders clashed over the use of the word "abortion" in the G-7 statement. Meloni’s government had sought to water down references to abortion in the final statement issued by all the G-7 nations at the end of the summit. 

 

The final statement, released Friday, omits the word "abortion" but does reference the need to promote "reproductive health and rights."  Macron said that he regretted the decision, telling an Italian reporter on Thursday, "It’s not a vision that’s shared across all the political spectrum." 

 

"I regret it, but I respect it because it was the sovereign choice of your people," Macron said.  Meloni told reporters Saturday that a suspected row with Macron had been blown out of proportion. Meloni, who in 2022 became Italy’s first female Prime Minister, campaigned with the slogan of "God, fatherland, and family." She has prioritized encouraging women to have babies to reverse Italy’s demographic crisis.

Well if you regard the Government and the Catholic Church to be ‘the people’.

The video is very funny. And not just La Meloni who is beautifully demonstrative with her eyes, but the whole stupid business of kiss-hands, embrace, shake hands etc etc.

"It's no surprice a certain type dislike her"

 

In particular, from men who fall for older women and have a kind of mother complex.
