Elon Musk said he was ready to provide Italy with secure communication services after Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni denied that the issue had come up during a weekend visit to the United States.

Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni did not discuss Rome's talks with Elon Musk's SpaceX over the possible supply of its Starlink services during her weekend visit to the United States, the PM's office said.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is set to meet with President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday night, just weeks after the pair met in Paris for the Notre Dame reopening ceremony that saw the president-elect courting world leaders in what was a previous of his administration taking office in a little over two weeks.
