The media reported on Meloni's plans to visit the United States to ease import duties from the EU.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is concerned about the actions of American President Donald Trump due to the imposition of import duties and plans to visit the United States in the near future to agree on at least partial easing of economic measures. This was reported by Bloomberg on 31, citing officials.

"Her statements about trade or seeking peace in Ukraine are carefully calibrated so as not to displease the White House," the article says.

It is reported that Meloni plans to visit the United States in order to ease US tariffs on imports of goods from the European Union (EU). However, the exact date of the trip has not been set.

The publication emphasized that Meloni was the only one of all the EU leaders who attended Trump's inauguration in January. She also met with the US president at Mar-a-Lago and declared friendship with American entrepreneur Elon Musk.

Despite this, as Bloomberg notes, Italy was affected by the consequences of the introduction of US trade duties. It is clarified that the planned introduction of new US tariffs could hit the country's economy even harder.

On March 15, Meloni said that Italy would not send its troops to Ukraine and called on EU countries to work with the United States to identify reliable and effective security guarantees.

Earlier, on February 18, Meloni said that the settlement of the conflict in Ukraine could not be an "anti-Trump format." She noted that the United States is working to achieve peace and called on the EU to contribute as well.
