Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni shared a Ghibli-style anime artwork featuring herself with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi.
The post, shared on X, blended diplomacy with pop culture and quickly caught the attention of internet users.
Meloni uploaded a single image split into two parts.
