Relations between U.S. President Donald Trump and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni have worsened following a series of public arguments regarding diplomatic behavior and strategic cooperation.

由於在外交行為與戰略合作方面發生了一系列公開爭執，美國總統川普與義大利總理梅洛尼的關係有所惡化。

The current tension started when President Trump told the Italian broadcaster La7 that Prime Minister Meloni had repeatedly asked for a photograph during the G7 Summit in Évian-les-Bains. He later repeated these claims on the Truth Social platform. However, Prime Minister Meloni described these statements as fake, emphasizing that neither she nor the Italian government behaves in such a way. Consequently, the dispute reached a diplomatic level when Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani canceled a planned visit to the United States on June 21 and 22, stating that the President's remarks were offensive.

目前的緊張局勢始於川普總統告訴義大利電視台 La7，梅洛尼總理在艾維昂萊班的 G7 峰會期間，重複要求合照。他隨後在 Truth Social 平台上再次重複這些主張。然而，梅洛尼總理將這些說法描述為造假，並強調她或義大利政府都不會採取 such 行為。因此，當義大利外交部長塔亞尼取消 6 月 21 日與 22 日原定的美國訪問，並聲明總統的言論具有冒犯性時，這場爭議上升到了外交層面。

Beyond this personal conflict, there are serious strategic disagreements regarding the conflict in Iran. The U.S. administration expressed disappointment because Italy refused to allow U.S. bombers to use a Sicilian airbase without permission from parliament. This decision was based on constitutional rules and domestic opposition. Furthermore, the relationship was damaged when Prime Minister Meloni defended Pope Leo XIV after the President criticized the Pope's opposition to the war. Although the two leaders were previously close, it seems unlikely that they will reconcile in the near future.

除了個人衝突外，雙方在伊朗衝突方面存在嚴重的戰略分歧。美國政府對義大利拒絕在未經議會許可的情況下讓美國轟炸機使用西西里島空軍基地表示失望。此決定是基於憲法規定及國內反對。此外，在川普總統批評教宗反對戰爭後，梅洛尼總理為教宗利奧十四世辯護，進一步損害了兩國關係。儘管兩位領導人此前關係親近，但短期內似乎不太可能和解。

At the same time, both leaders have argued publicly about their popularity at home. President Trump suggested that Meloni's approval is falling because she refuses to support U.S. military goals. In contrast, Meloni asserted that her popularity comes from her commitment to Italian national interests and sovereignty. Data from YouGov and Ipsos show that both leaders have similar levels of public disapproval, although Meloni currently has a higher approval rating than Trump does in his second term.

同時，兩位領導人也公開就其在國內的支持率展開爭論。川普總統暗示梅洛尼的支持率下降是因為她拒絕支持美國的軍事目標。相反，梅洛尼堅稱她的支持率源於她對義大利國家利益與主權的承諾。YouGov 與 Ipsos 的數據顯示，兩位領導人的公眾反對率相近，儘管梅洛尼目前的支持率高於川普在第二任期中的支持率。

The relationship between the two countries remains tense as both leaders continue to disagree on diplomatic etiquette and military logistics before the next NATO summit in Turkey.

在下一次土耳其 NATO 峰會前，由於兩位領導人在外交禮儀與軍事後勤方面持續分歧，兩國關係依然緊張。
