Il Foglio: Merz should be a role model for Italian conservatives. The presumed next German chancellor Friedrich Merz could become a role model for Italian conservatives, speculates Il Foglio. He does not shout, does not waste time with selfies on social media and is not populist. He does not fall under Trump’s ban, does not spread conspiracy theories and has never questioned the defense of Ukraine. The new German chancellor is an exception among the right-wing parties in Europe and a perfect mirror to identify and combat the vices of the conservatives.
