What to expect from the elections in Italy and how it will affect the support of Ukraine: the opinion of a political scientist

by alex

On September 25, 2022, early parliamentary elections are being held in Italy. It is unlikely that a bright pro-Russian coalition will form in Italy in the future. Taras Semenyuk does not agree with those who say that Russia won the Italian elections.

Political scientist Taras Semenyuk told Channel 24 about this. He also noted that it is not entirely objective to interpret these elections in this way, because Russia does not win in Italy.

Yes, there are still pro-Russian politicians in this country, but this does not mean that they will be dictated by the Kremlin rules of conduct. Semenyuk is convinced.

He adds that they have already begun to talk that Georgia Meloni can become prime minister, because her party, according to exit polls, wins with a 25% advantage.

“And she is quite pro-European, but at the same time she gave positive passages to Orban. Yes, there may be people in this coalition who will be “Putin's friends”. First of all, they are talking about a longtime comrade of the Kremlin dictator Berlusconi” , – adds the political scientist.

But it is unlikely that it will be a pro-Russian government, Taras Semenyuk expressed this opinion, because institutions of power work in Italy, and according to sociological indicators, most of its communities support sanctions and provide us with weapons, he sums up.
