Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party won Italy’s European Parliament vote, securing 27% to 31%, a substantial increase from 6% in 2019. According to a Swg poll for La7, the left-wing Democratic Party followed with 21.5% to 25.5%. Meloni's victory reflects broader gains for far-right parties in Europe and strengthens her influence in EU parliamentary alliances and decisions, including the future of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Meloni’s strategic leadership and direct appeal to voters have solidified her domestic and EU political standing.
