US President Donald Trump has again criticised Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, saying she repeatedly asked to take photos with him during the G7 summit. Trump claimed Meloni wanted the pictures to help increase her popularity. He also criticised Italy’s views on Iran and raised concerns about the country's role in Nato cooperation. Trump's comments have brought fresh attention to differences between the two leaders on international issues. Meloni has not publicly replied to the remarks. The comments come as G7 countries work together on major global challenges, including security, defence and foreign policy. (PC: India Today)
