ROME, June 23 (Reuters) – Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said on Tuesday relations with the United States had to return to normal following a public falling out between President Donald Trump and herself last week.
“I don’t intend to keep fuelling this dispute,” Meloni said in an interview at an event in Rome.
On Friday, Meloni accused her one-time close ally Trump of fabricating a story about her after the U.S. president told an Italian TV channel that she had “begged” him to take a photo with her at a recent G7 summit in France.
