STORYLINE:
The new Italian government formed by appointed Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni was officially sworn in at the presidential palace on Saturday.
Italy held a snap general election on Sept. 25, following the resignation of Mario Draghi as prime minister in July, which put an end to a government of national unity that led the country for some 17 months.
Meloni, the leader of right-wing Brothers of Italy, was asked to form the new government after her party won 26 percent of votes in the recent polls, ending up as the most voted force.
If Meloni and her cabinet pass confidence vote at the parliament, she will serve as the country's first female prime minister ever.
