So I decided to ask the ambassador to go pay the bill, which I paid myself. Nothing big, I didn't actually report it. However, this too has created controversy in Italy, from an opposition that apparently prefers another image of Italy. I'm sorry because I was hoping that at least for something so insignificant we all would agree..”, writes Mellon on its former social X website as Twitter.
