Italy has been identified as a significant underminer of democracy within the EU, according to a report by the Civil Liberties Union for Europe. The report outlines three main areas where PM Giorgia Meloni's government is purportedly weakening civil rights: limiting civil liberties through harsh new laws against peaceful protests, infringing on press freedom particularly against state broadcaster RAI, and increasing political interference. These measures aim to silence dissent and control narratives, contributing to a broader trend of democratic erosion in Europe, alongside other member states like Bulgaria and Romania.
