Giorgia Meloni Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

This week, Giorgia Meloni has been at the very center of a national outcry and global headlines after a major scandal erupted involving the non-consensual sharing and sexualized manipulation of images of her and other female Italian politicians. Italian government sources, as well as outlets like Politico, confirm that Meloni was outraged when she discovered her photos circulating on an explicit website called Phica, which was recently shut down after reaching more than 700,000 subscribers. In passionate public statements, Meloni has called for the “maximum severity” in punishing the perpetrators, fueling calls for much tougher legislation on gender-based digital violence and inspiring an online petition that drew huge support. According to the Business & Human Rights Resource Centre and Euronews, the scandal is being described as Italy’s #MeToo moment, a profound reckoning not just for political elites but for Italian society at large, with Meloni’s response drawing praise and scrutiny alike.

The digital misogyny scandal isn’t isolated. Just days earlier, Meta shut down a notorious Facebook group called “Mia Moglie” where tens of thousands of users exchanged intimate images of women, sometimes with explicit or degrading commentary. Italian prosecutors are now investigating both cases, with reports indicating some images may have been faked or lifted directly from social media and television appearances to be altered and shared without consent. Meloni, alongside fellow politicians like Alessandra Moretti and opposition leader Elly Schlein, has made a public stand against these crimes. This development adds a powerful new chapter to her political biography, marking her as an outspoken advocate against gendered cyber violence—an issue that’s rapidly gaining international significance.

On the diplomatic front, Meloni’s schedule remains relentless. Earlier in the week, she spoke at the prestigious Meeting of the Catholic movement Comunione e Liberazione in Rimini, receiving a prolonged ovation and staking out Italy’s place as a “strong, proud, authoritative” power on the global stage. She addressed the EU’s geopolitical challenges and urged European leaders to rediscover the continent’s cultural roots. This speech was quickly echoed by Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican, underscoring a unique synergy between spiritual and political realms.

Her foreign policy activities included online participation in the Coalition of the Willing’s Paris summit discussing Ukraine, as reported by Oj Journal and Monocle. Meloni reaffirmed Italy’s commitment to monitoring and training for a ceasefire outside Ukraine’s borders, ruling out the deployment of Italian troops. She later joined a phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump to discuss next steps for lasting peace and continued sanctions against Russia. The image of Meloni, forthright on international stages, was further highlighted by her recent public appearance with the President of Poland in Rome—a diplomatic event underscoring Italy’s role in regional security.

For her domestic politics, Meloni expressed strong solidarity with police and Interior Minister Piantedosi following protests in Milan against the Leoncavallo eviction, reported by Wanted in Milan. She’s positioning herself deftly between policing and civil unrest, a balance central to Italian governance. Meanwhile, tabloids and social media buzzed about Meloni rolling her eyes at German Chancellor Merz during recent Ukraine peace talks, a viral moment sure to add color to her public image according to AOL News.
