U.S. President Donald Trump has agreed to an official visit to Rome and will consider also meeting representatives of the European Union while there, Italy's Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said on Thursday in the Oval Office.

Her meeting with the U.S. President on Thursday in Washington will be a first test of this role, where Meloni will need to walk a diplomatic tightrope. The high-stakes meeting comes in the wake of Trump’s 90-day pause on “reciprocal” tariffs for the E.U.

In Washington, President Trump lavished praise on Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni of Italy. He also accepted her invitation to visit Rome.
