The Italian Prime Minister during her speech underlined: “We must release the best forces that Italy has. To make courageous choices that have not been made for many years. It is the time when we should use that approach that the Greeks define perfectly, with an excellent word: “meraki”, that is to do something with all your being, with passion, with your soul.”

Meloni added: “It is an approach which in this phase of the crisis we are living in, with the gradual exit from the pandemic and also the difficult international economic situation, can and should offer opportunities to our nation “.

“Meraki” is a word that could be rendered as a deep love and passion for something a person is involved in.
