Trump taunts Meloni with fresh photo salvo as NATO summit puts allies face-to-face
Trump posted a photo of Giorgia Meloni with the caption "restraining order needed" days before the two leaders face each other at the NATO summit.
"RESTRAINING ORDER NEEDED," Trump posted on Truth Social Sunday alongside a photo of Meloni looking at him.
A spat began in June, however, after Trump said Meloni "begged" him to take a photo at the G7. Meloni pushed back on the claim.
The latest exchange followed an earlier flashpoint at the G7 in June, when Trump mocked Meloni's interest in taking a photo with him.
"She wanted a picture with me so badly. I wouldn't have taken it, but I felt sorry for her," Trump said at the time to La7 TV channel. "She's probably happy I talked to her. I didn't have to talk to her."
A spokesperson for Meloni declined to comment when contacted by Fox News Digital. Fox News Digital also reached out to the White House for comment.
