Meloni to be presented with thinktank's global citizen award by Musk

Meloni will be handed the prize during a gala dinner in New York on the sidelines of the UN general assembly, in recognition of her "groundbreaking role as Italy's first female prime minister, her strong support of the European Union and the transatlantic alliance, and her 2024 chairmanship of the Group of Seven".

Some staff at the Atlantic Council told Politico's NatSec Daily that they objected to Meloni being granted the award, owing to her previous admiration for Vladimir Putin and her positions on LGBTQ+ issues and immigration. Anger mounted when the non-partisan thinktank then announced that Musk, with whom Meloni has nurtured close relations since coming to power in October 2022, would present the award.
