His comments came after the European People’s Party, the socialist and the liberal groups reportedly reached an agreement on the EU top jobs.
“Tomorrow Meloni will speak [at the EU summit],” Tajani said.
“She knows what our position is, I assume she knows what the League’s position is.
“We (FI) will vote yes to the current package; I don’t think Italy can vote no.
“We’ll have to see what the negotiations are like.
“The real negotiations are yet to begin.
“There is still a long way to go in the game.
“It is clear that Meloni has to stand her ground.
“She is right to say that, while there can be a majority decision, you cannot keep a country like Italy out.
“Meloni is not only the head of ECR, she is also the prime minister of a government which has the EPP in it (via FI).”
