Meloni says out loud what others only think - Saied

(see related) (ANSA) - ROME, JUN 6 - Tunisian President Kais Saied praised Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni for her quality of speaking her mind as he welcomed her to the presidential palace for talks during her visit to the North African country on Tuesday.
    "I'm very happy to speak to you about our problems," Saied said.
    "I say it out loud. Today you are a woman who says out loud what others think in silence".
    Meloni replied that "I am very happy to be here" as she shook Saied's hand.
    The leaders had a meeting that lasted one hour and 45 minutes.
    Tunisia is in the midst of a major financial crisis and the unstable situation in the North African country has been a major factor in a huge increase in the number of migrants coming to Italy from across the Mediterranean this year. Meloni reportedly hopes the visit can lead to a breakthrough in stalled talks between Tunis and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on a 1.9.billion-dollar loan to ease the crisis. (ANSA).
