Argentina’s President Javier Milei Fast-Tracks Italian Citizenship Amid Controversy
Argentinian President Javier Milei has been granted Italian citizenship in a fast-tracked process, sparking criticism from the Italian opposition. Alongside Milei, his sister Karina also received citizenship, as they are descendants of Italian immigrants. The opposition accuses Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni of favoritism, highlighting the lengthy wait many foreigners face for citizenship in Italy, which usually requires ten years of residency. Meanwhile, Milei is in Italy to strengthen ties with Meloni and participate in a political festival.
