Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni of Italy has stirred controversy by dismissing Islamic culture and asserting its alleged incompatibility with European values. Speaking at a political festival organized by her far-right party, the Brothers of Italy, Meloni expressed skepticism about the harmony between Islamic culture and the principles of European civilization. She raised concerns about the funding of Islamic cultural centers in Italy by Saudi Arabia, where Sharia law is enforced, and warned of what she perceived as a distant Islamization process conflicting with European values.

The comments followed the political festival in Rome, attended by British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who, in his speech, advocated for global reforms to the asylum system. Sunak cautioned about the potentially overwhelming impact of a growing number of refugees on parts of Europe, attributing the situation to intentional efforts by some “enemies” to destabilize societies. He called for updating laws and leading an international conversation to amend post-war frameworks around asylum.

Musk highlighted the value of preserving cultures, expressing concern about Italy’s low birth rate and advocating for maintaining cultural identity. The remarks by Meloni and other leaders underscore the ongoing debate surrounding immigration, cultural identity, and global refugee challenges.
