At the 6th Summit of the European Political Community hosted by Albania, a striking moment stole the spotlight: as Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni walked toward the red carpet, Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama dropped his umbrella and knelt down like a suitor awaiting his beloved.
Meloni approached Rama with a smile and quipped:
“He’s only doing this to be the same height as me.”
The two leaders then embraced and posed for the cameras.These images from Tirana quickly overshadowed even the summit itself, becoming the defining moment of the event.
