Italy's Giorgia Meloni was sworn in Saturday as the country's first female prime minister, alongside her cabinet — giving the country its most right-wing government since the Second World War.

Meloni, head of the nationalist Brothers of Italy, swept to victory in last month's election as part of a coalition that included Forza Italia, led by former premier Silvio Berlusconi and Matteo Salvini's League. Her government, the 12th of this century, replaces a national unity administration led by Mario Draghi, and faces several challenges including a looming recession and the Ukraine war.

Salvini and Forza Italia's Antonio Tajani were among those named to cabinet with both men sharing the role of deputy prime minister, in addition to their own ministerial portfolios.
