Because of a remark by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on October 13, local time, Italian female Prime Minister Giorgia Giorgia Meloni's bad habits were made public.

At the Gaza Peace Summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, Erdogan, 71, told Meloni through an interpreter: "I saw you get off the plane and you look great. But I have to let you quit smoking."

Erdogan's remarks made British Prime Minister Sir Keir Keir Starmer, who stood by, and French President Emmanuel Macron laugh.

And Macron also continued to "make up":"It's impossible (to ask her to quit smoking)." It is clear that Meloni's heavy smoker is no secret among European leaders.

Erdogan is said to have urged Meloni to quit smoking, possibly because of his concern for the elderly, but also because he vowed to make Turkey a smoke-free country.

Erdogan's words should be of no use to Meloni, now 48. Because she immediately expressed her position and said in English with a strong Italian accent: "I know, I know. I don't want to kill anyone."

In fact, Meloni has said that smoking is sometimes a way or opportunity for her to interact with other leaders and politicians, such as during informal meetings or conversations, and that Tunisia¡¯s President Kai Saied, who is ¡°similar¡± to her, is, of course, not her smoking companion, even though the two are allegedly close.

Meloni once talked about her addiction to cigarettes in the conversational memoir La versione di Giorgia. She said that she started smoking again after 13 years of quitting smoking, which she regretted. But at the same time, she also emphasized the benefits of smoking for herself, that is, the earlier mentioned, it can build friendship with others.

The Italian media described Meloni's smoking exposure as "an episode at the summit" and believed that Meloni responded to Erdogan's words with humor and without losing himself.

But there are also media commentaries that point out that Meloni¡¯s smoking as prime minister is not only her private habit but also a topic of public health policy. It is worth noting that Italy is a country that is more sensitive to public health (especially tobacco and air quality), so their leaders¡¯ smoking behavior will obviously be placed bigger, ¡°Since we are committed to public health, why are political leaders still smoking publicly or talking about smoking?¡±

It has to be said that it is not easy for Meloni, a woman, to get in the circle of leaders with a majority of men.

Male heads of state are rarely paid attention to their appearance or personal behavior, but not only does she have to be called "young and beautiful" by US President Donald Trump in public, but she also has to be bluntly persuaded by Erdogan to quit smoking.
