Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s Fratelli d’Italia party has won European elections in Italy with a whopping 28% of votes. Analysts say she secured herself as kingmaker in the European Parliament.

Giorgia Meloni’s far-right Fratelli d’Italia, or Brothers of Italy, secures victory in Italy after receiving over 28% of the votes, according to an exit poll released by the Italian RAI.

The victory would give her a domestic boost while positioning her as one of the most powerful figures in the European Union.

The centre-left opposition PD earned 23% of votes, followed by the populist Five Star Movement, which received 10% of support, a seven-point decrease from the 2019 election.
