Meloni Faces Major Test as Italy Holds Referendum on Justice

Italians head to the polls this weekend in a referendum on judicial reform that has turned into a litmus test for the premiership of Giorgia Meloni.

The outcome of the vote will shape the mood ahead of a general election next year, potentially destabilizing Meloni, who has led one of Italy’s longest-serving governments and evolved into one of Europe’s most influential leaders.
