Updated list of countries with Albanian leaders
🇦🇱
🇽🇰
🇲🇪 (ethnic Albanian PM)
🇧🇷 (a great grandparent of Bolsonaro comes from an Arbëreshë town)
🇦🇺 (south italians with the surname 'Albanese' have ancestors from Arbëreshë settlements)
Poland supporting Palestinian UN membership after 7.10 massacre is: 1. A dangerous precedent of rewarding the aggressor. 2. Continuing the 1988 Soviet-led anti-West decision of recognizing "Palestinian state". 3. Rewarding Iran & Hamas against US & Israel position. 4. Complete
@Hokton4
Czechia too, but both recognitions happened in 1988
Hungary and Czechia keep voting against Palestine in UN, while Poland (only now) and Slovakia vote for
In another universe there will be different election outcomes and a G20 with 6 italians
🇮🇹 Meloni
🇦🇷 Milei or Massa
🇦🇺 Albanese
🇧🇷 Lula
🇮🇳 R. Gandhi
🇺🇸 DeSantis
Remember those Italian Maoists who praised Pol Pot and even supported ISIS/Talibans "against American imperialism"?
They support now Ukraine against the "Neonazi Russian Imperialism", though they still claim that Holodomor is fake
Italy's two largest parties are now led by under 50 yo women
Until 5 months ago, we had over 50 yo men leading the two main parties for most of the time.
Today italian pollster BiDiMedia has published 3 voting intention polls among Italian voters on 🇩🇪🇪🇸🇬🇧 political parties
According to them, German parties would be more balanced. SPD, FDP, LINKE would benefit in Italy at the expense of Union and GRÜNE. AfD would stay around 20%.
I decided to compare national parties' votes in the European Parliament on Israel's actions (2019-22) and Climate-environmental resolutions (2019-24).
Pro-Israel parties tend to oppose climate resolutions and vice versa. Renew parties show more variability on both issues.
🇬🇧: govt crisis
🇧🇬: govt crisis
🇸🇰: govt crisis
🇮🇪: govt crisis
🇮🇹: M5S stays in the government because it doesn't have the courage to go against Draghi, their MPs don't want to lose their salaries, PD threatens M5S to break the alliance if they rebel against Draghi.
The political position of the ruling political party in European countries. In case of alliance, the political position of the party with the most number of seats is considered.

the European Right is slowly being more supportive to advocate another Eastwards EU enlargment to make it both more conservative, but also more unstable/anti-federalist
If this happens, the European left will be more eurosceptic
Italian right: "PD is incompetent, Meloni will stop migrants"
*Italy faces a record-breaking number of migrant arrivals*
Italian right: "This is an act of war against Italy, PD has intelligence agents that manipulate the policies of France and Germany"
🇮🇹 CDX's swing arrow from 2013 to 2022
In the last 9 years the right-wing alliance has increased its voting share everywhere except the Naples metro area.

Can we talk about how pathetic the pro🇮🇱 mobilisation has been?
We’ve been bombarded for the whole week with millions of YouTube ads saying “Vote Eden” in addition to propaganda by political leaders from the centre to the far right
All this to get less televote than Croatia
🇪🇺🇮🇹🇸🇰 The head of the PD delegation at European Parliament (MEP Benifei) says that Smer will probably be expelled from the PES if they form a government with the far right (SNS) and disengage from support for Ukraine.
🇮🇹 Forza Italia Congress, Leadership election results
Antonio Tajani: 100% ✅️
Tajani was the only running candidate for the Secretariat (not presidency because Berlusconi is symbolically the eternal President)
Party map of Sardinian 2019 regional election is done and It's the most chaotic and coloured map I've ever made. The largest party got only 13.5%
Despite having only 1.6 million people, Sardinia has 377 municipalities (more than The Netherlands)
MELONI RUNS FOR EUROPEAN ELECTIONS.
She is FdI's leading candidate in all Italian constituencies. This candidacy is just symbolic and is seen as a test for herself and her government after a year and a half.
Italy: big tent regionalist alliance Libertà (*) reaches an all-time record high with 3.7% in the latest Euromedia poll. This is just below the electoral threshold of 4% needed to receive representation in the European parliament.
The leader of the alliance, Cateno De Luca
🇮🇹 Antonio Tajani is the new acting Secretary (not President) of Forza Italia, he is going to lead the party until the Party Congress in 2024
Silvio Berlusconi will be the "Founder President" according to the party statute, making it de iure ruled by some ashes (he was cremated)
Law and Justice party (PiS) lost the election in Poland on Sunday. But they were not the only loser: they've dragged the Catholic church with them.
How PiS made Poland rapidly secularizing in the last 8 years?
