  • Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is urging the successor of Fiat to increase production in Italy, highlighting the challenges and expectations facing the Italian automotive sector. Such actions could impact the country's competitiveness.

  • In France, President Macron is set to hold consultations next week to discuss the formation of a new government. Potential candidates for Prime Minister include leftist Lucie Castets, former socialist Bernard Cazeneuve, and conservative Xavier Bertrand.
