22.08.2025 โ‡ข Europe's Illusion, Draghi's Reckoning
โŒจThe day's Italian media coverage pivoted significantly on former Prime Minister Mario Draghi's speech at the Meeting. Draghi delivered a strong critique of the European Union, stating that the EU had become "marginal and a spectator" in global conflicts from Ukraine to Gaza, and that 2025 marked the "evaporation of the illusion" of its influence. This analysis dominated afternoon and evening headlines, highlighting a call for Europe to reassess its standing.
Earlier in the day, the Israel-Hamas conflict continued to feature prominently, with Israeli Minister Katz threatening to destroy Gaza City if hostages were not released, followed by a UN declaration of famine in Gaza, which Israel disputed. Concurrently, the Ukraine conflict remained a focus as Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov reported Zelensky's rejection of Trump's peace proposals, and air raid alerts sounded in Kyiv during NATO Secretary General Rutte's visit. A domestic story involved the revocation of real estate developer Manfredi Catella's arrest in the Milan urban planning inquiry.
