Italian PM Giorgia Meloni yesterday expressed opposition to Donald Trump's criticism of the Pope, leading Trump to strike back today. Trump stated, 'Meloni does not want to help us in the war; I thought she had courage, but I was wrong.' The two former allies have publicly fallen out. Trump criticized Pope Leo XIV's foreign policy and attacked Meloni for refusing to provide aid despite Italy's reliance on oil. He claimed she does not care about Iran's nuclear weapons. In an interview with Corriere della Sera, Trump asserted that immigration is destroying Italy and Europe, while criticizing the Pope for not understanding the Iranian threat. He also noted that Hungarian leader Viktor Orban recently lost his election.
