The newly elected Leader of the Nationalist Party, Alex Borg, is set to make his first major decision in the coming hours — the official assignment of Shadow Ministerial roles.
According to information reaching this site, Borg has already outlined his initial selections:
- Beppe Fenech Adami will be entrusted with the crucial portfolio of Internal Affairs, a role that places him at the forefront of the PN’s stance on law and order.
- Rebecca Borg is tipped to take over Foreign Affairs, where she will be tasked with sharpening the PN’s voice on international relations and Malta’s position within the EU.
- Ryan Callus is expected to shadow the Energy sector, a politically sensitive area given the country’s ongoing debates on supply, sustainability, and affordability.
- Toni Bezzina is set to shadow Infrastructure, one of the most visible areas where the Opposition is expected to keep the government under constant scrutiny.
- Joe Giglio is likely to be assigned the Justice portfolio, positioning him as a strong voice on legal reforms, governance, and institutional integrity.
These appointments mark Borg’s first test as leader — a moment that will shape his relationship with the parliamentary group, set the tone for his leadership, and send a clear signal to party members and the electorate alike about the direction he intends to take.
