A coalition of three right-wing parties is on course for majorities in both houses of the Italian Parliament, provisional results from Sunday's general election show — setting the stage for Italy's most conservative government in decades.
Why it matters: The result puts Giorgia Meloni, who leads the Brothers of Italy, in pole position to become prime minister. Her coalition also includes The League, led by far-right firebrand Matteo Salvini, and former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's Forza Italia.
