DESCRIPTION:You are invited to a Webinar conversation with Dr Jason Davison.\nPolicymakers and analysts on both sides of the Atlantic watched Italy’s September 2022 elections with concern about the consequences of the election for Rome’s policy toward the Ukraine War. Over six months have passed, however, and Georgia Meloni’s government has continued her predecessor’s policy of support for Ukraine with striking consistency.
