"What is happening is damage to the nation, to its opportunities and this drives me crazy", said Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni regarding her official placement under investigation for aiding and embezzlement in the case of Libyan General Osama Almasri’s release. "The world has returned to focus on Italy and our companies; something has shifted. There is a government that strives to establish conditions of confidence and stability. In this circumstance, yesterday I found myself on the top page of the Financial Times with the news that I am under investigation, and while Italians understand exactly what is going on, it is not the same abroad". "Will the same Norwegian fund that bought €8 billion in Italian government bonds be more inclined to buy €9 billion, €7 billion, or even nothing at all after reading this news?", Meloni asked, pointing the finger at the judiciary, accusing it of a "deliberate act".
