With the success of the Fratelli Ditalia party in Sunday's elections, the wind took place as expected in the Italian elections, appealing to the vessels of the "far right" forces, and for the first time in the country's history a woman, Giorgia Meloni, the leader of the party, will take over the Italian government.

The Fratelli d'Italia Brothers Party imposed itself as a first player, having remained in opposition ranks in all successive governments since the 2018 legislative elections, and its share of the vote went from 4.3 percent 4 years ago to about a quarter of the vote, according to exit polls from polling stations Sunday, becoming Italy's first

According to the semi-final preliminary results, the right-wing coalition led by the Georgian-Meloni Brothers' Party of Italy, rooted in "neo-fascism", won the majority of votes.

According to the Italian Centre for Electoral Studies, the Brothers of Italy Party and the Northern League will have jointly collected the highest proportion of votes ever recorded by far-right parties in Western European history from 1945 to the moment.

This comes as observers and experts warned against falling into the trap of stereotypical classifications of the Italian and European right in general, excluding the results as the beginning of a resurgence of Italy's fascism.

However, analysts see this historic victory of the new Italian right as a punishment for classical parties, rather than convinced of the orientations and ideas of the hard right, while others consider that the fascist backgrounds of the winning party should not be underestimated and a realistic indication that the base of the hard-right forces is broad on the Italian street.

The President of the "Brothers of Italy" party Meloni, of course, is right-wing but cannot be described as far-right. Before the election, she took the initiative to clarify her positions and policies from various external files in support of European Union policies and unity, to support NATO and her country '

Meloni leads the "Brothers of Italy" party, which appeared on the political scene only about a decade ago, following the split in the "People of Freedom" party previously claimed by former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.

Italy has a long history with political turmoil and short governments, and whoever will serve as the next Prime Minister will head Government No. 68 since 1946 and face many challenges, especially the high cost of energy in the wake of the Ukrainian crisis.

European capitals and financial markets are also anxiously awaiting what is happening in Italy with a desire to maintain unity against Russia, and fears of Italy's enormous debt.
