China In Context
How will Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni handle relations with China?
Giorgia Meloni - leader of a right wing party - has confounded her critics since becoming prime minister of Italy. She has taken on major diplomatic challenges and is currently enjoying attention as the president of the G7 group of industrialised nations. Ms Meloni has said that Italy will no longer be a part of China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a scheme designed to promote investment in infrastructure. In this podcast, the author and journalist Bill Emmott discusses Ms Meloni’s political approach with regular host, Duncan Bartlett. Mr Emmott is Chair of the IISS think tank.
