What happened
Meloni has filed an application with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) to trademark her voice, which includes a four-second recording of her saying "I am Giorgia Meloni" in Italian. The application covers three categories of services and is currently under examination. The recording is listed on the EUIPO website and was confirmed by Meloni's office.
