France's President Emmanuel Macron is holding talks in Paris this Tuesday with Italian PM Giorgia Meloni. She heads Italy's most right-wing govt since WWII, while he regards himself as a bulwark against the far-right. Talks are meant to prepare for the European summit later this month in Brussels, and a Nato summit next month in Vilnius Lithuania. FRANCE 24's Clovis Casali reports from the Elysee Palace.
