Roma, 18 aprile 2025 "Sono onorata di accogliere a Palazzo Chigi il vicepresidente degli Stati Uniti JD Vance che non vedo da un sacco di tempo...". Lo ha detto, con una punta di umorismo, la premier Giorgia Meloni all'inizio dell'incontro con il vicepresidente degli Stati Uniti JD Vance a Palazzo Chigi. "Abbiamo avuto un fantastico incontro ieri a Washington".
00:00Buongiorno a tutti, sono onorata di accogliere a Palazzo Chigi il vicepresidente degli Stati
00:16Uniti d'America, J.D. Vance, che non vedo da un sacco di tempo. Come sapete abbiamo avuto
00:21un fantastico incontro ieri alla Casa Bianca a Washington e questa presenza è un'altra
00:26grande occasione per rafforzare la nostra cooperazione bilaterale, molti temi dei quali abbiamo discusso
00:31nella giornata di ieri, molti temi dei quali discuteremo anche nella giornata di oggi, ma
00:35sicuramente Italia e Stati Uniti sono determinati a rafforzare la loro cooperazione, noi crediamo
00:41che l'Italia possa essere un partner estremamente importante nell'Europa e nel Mediterraneo per
00:47gli Stati Uniti d'America e sicuramente c'è un rapporto privilegiato tra noi del quale
00:53io vado molto orgogliosa. I was simply saying thank you for being here. I want to add that
00:58I'm proud that you decided to pass the Easter here in Rome and we really hope you will enjoy
01:08this time and that I'm honoured to welcome you here in Palazzo Chigi after the wonderful
01:17meeting we had yesterday in Washington in which we've been discussing many topics. Many others
01:23we will discuss today but in any case Italy and the United States are committed to
01:29announce their strong cooperation. We think Italy can be a reliable and a serious partner in
01:36Europe in the Mediterranean area and so we are proud to have this special relation with
01:43U.S. and with this administration. Great. Well thank you Prime Minister Meloni. It's wonderful
01:49to see you again and I hope that's exactly what you said of course she could have called
01:53me a jerk and I wouldn't know but it would be in the most beautiful language imaginable
01:57and so I wouldn't even get offended but I appreciate our friendship both between our nations but also
02:03between us personally and certainly the president sends his best regards to you but to the people
02:07of Italy. I couldn't help as I drove around these streets. We arrived this morning with my wife
02:13and our three young children and we're looking forward to spending Easter here but this is a
02:17place that was built by people that love humans and love God and the streets the buildings the
02:25beautiful landscape and cityscape I think it really lifts up the human spirit so we're going to have some
02:30good conversations but I also take some inspiration from being in this beautiful city filled with
02:34wonderful people and so we're grateful to you and of course to the people of Rome the people of Italy for
02:39for their friendship and also for their warm welcome. We have a couple of important issues to discuss
02:44today. I want to update the Prime Minister on some of the negotiations between Russia, Ukraine and also
02:49some of the things that have happened even in the past 24 hours we think we have some interesting
02:53things to report on of course in private so the negotiations I won't prejudge them but we do feel
02:58optimistic that we can hopefully bring this war this very brutal war to a close. I also of course want to
03:03talk to the Prime Minister about some of the economic relationships very important between Italy and the United States but of
03:08course we're having some big trade negotiations between not just Italy and the United States but the
03:13whole European Union. We talked a great deal about that yesterday with the President and we'll follow
03:16up on those conversations today but most of all just thrilled to be in the presence of a dear friend
03:21in a beautiful place with great people so thank you for having me.
03:24Thank you very much.
