Meloni's government has lasted 1,024 days, making it the fourth longest-serving government in office.

With a 1024-member government , Meloni's government is aiming to first match and then surpass Matteo Renzi's government in terms of longevity, and secure fourth place, as of Tuesday, August 12, among the longest-lasting governments in the history of the Republic. So far, Berlusconi II, Berlusconi IV, and Craxi I have performed better.
The Renzi government was in office from February 22, 2014, to December 12, 2016, a total of 1,024 days. Craxi's first government, from August 4, 1983, to August 1, 1986, came in second with 1,093 days, while Berlusconi's fourth government, from May 8, 2008, to November 16, 2011, was firmly in second place with 1,287 days. The second government led by Berlusconi, Berlusconi's successor, came in undisputedly first, with 1,412 days of office, from June 11, 2001, to April 23, 2005.
But Giorgia Meloni can aspire to remain at the helm of the government for five consecutive years, a feat no Republican political leader has achieved, achieving a goal that would put her squarely in the top spot of the longest-serving governments. This is a realistically achievable result, considering that she could join the second cabinet of the Cav, currently the longest-serving of all, on September 4, 2026, a full year before the natural expiration of the legislative term.
Meloni, however, has been in the fast lane for some time. More than a month ago, she waved goodbye from the window of her government car to Giuseppe Conte, who had served 988 days, albeit with two governments: the yellow-green one with the League and the red-green one with the Democratic Party.
And it is precisely with her closest predecessors that the prime minister and leader of the Italian Democratic Party (FdI) has had the most heated clashes in recent years, both inside and outside Parliament. The disputes with the Five Star Movement leader over the 110 percent super bonus and the citizen's income remain in the annals of history. However, the most heated confrontation has been with Matteo Renzi. Beginning with the controversy over the eighty-euro bonus introduced by the former Democratic Party leader's government and overturned by the center-right government, it culminated with the prime minister's attacks on the IV leader's relationships with certain international leaders. This ongoing back-and-forth reached a climax when the current majority inserted a provision in the budget law to prevent parliamentarians from receiving compensation from companies based outside the European Union. This initiative was dubbed within Italia Viva as the "anti-Renzi" law. The mantra of the current government leadership is precisely the stability of the executive branch, a necessity—Giorgia Meloni has emphasized on more than one occasion—that allows for continuity in Italy's domestic and international action and allows for the necessary reforms the country requires.
