New far-right challenger reshapes Italy's center-right ahead of 2027

TL;DR Summary
A newly launched National Future party led by ex-general Roberto Vannacci is rapidly gaining ground in Italy, drawing defectors from Matteo Salvini’s League and pressuring Giorgia Meloni’s governing coalition ahead of the 2027 election. Vannacci’s hard-line platform—remigration, stricter immigration limits, nationalism, and defense spending—is shifting the right’s debate and could force Meloni to either bring the insurgent movement into her tent or risk alienating moderates and EU partners as polls show National Future approaching the League in support.
