Giuseppe Conte (born August 8, 1964) is the prime minister of Italy, serving since June 1, 2018. His government is a coalition between the Five Star Movement and the conservative Lega Nord, with Matteo Salvini being in his cabinet as Interior Minister and Deputy Prime Minister.
Early in his premiership, Conte developed good relations with U.S. President Donald Trump due to their general agreement on various policies.[1][2]
Coalition government
The Conte government developed a strong stance on immigration, under Interior Minister Matteo Salvini.
The government relaxed mandatory vaccine regulations, making it easier for parents to prove their children were vaccinated.[3][4]
