Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has announced her candidacy for the European elections top list.

Meloni's party, Brothers of Italy, is experiencing popularity and is performing well in polls for the European elections.

She is seeking to establish a right-wing majority in Europe and is emerging as a central figure among European conservatives.

Meloni's party will encounter challenges from its coalition partners during the elections.

She faces a decision between her current role as Italian Prime Minister and a potential new position as a Member of the European Parliament.

Other significant candidates in the election include PD leader Elly Schlein and Forza Italia's Antonio Tajani.
