ROME, Sept 16 (Reuters) – Italian Prime Minister Giorgia ​Meloni said ‌on Wednesday she intended to remain in office until ‌the ​end of ⁠the legislature.

Meloni ⁠earlier this month became Italy’s longest-serving prime minister since ​World War Two, and ⁠her term ⁠in office ​is due to ​expire in autumn 2027.

Some ‌Italian media reports have suggested that Meloni, ⁠whose coalition is losing support to a new ⁠far-right ‌movement led ⁠by former ​army ‌general Roberto Vannacci, ​may ⁠push for an early election
