Italian media on October 22 focused on the apparent postponement of the Trump-Putin summit, with the US stating peace in Ukraine was further away, and an EU-Kyiv plan emerging. This followed a previous agreement for Trump and Putin to meet in Budapest (October 16). Meloni's statements regarding the recognition of Palestine, conditional on a disarmed Hamas without a political role, also received significant attention, alongside Italy's continued support for Kyiv but a refusal to send soldiers. By late morning, the focus shifted to a woman in Milan severely injured after being stabbed by her ex-husband. Reports continued throughout the day, and by evening, it was confirmed the woman had died and her ex-husband was arrested.
