On 24 January 2022, Brothers of Italy's leader Giorgia Meloni proposed Nordio as her candidate in the 2022 Italian presidential election.[5] Nordio rejected the candidacy, citing lack of political experience.[6] However, he was confirmed as a possible candidate of the centre-right coalition on the following day.[7] On 29 January, Brothers of Italy voted him when all the other main parties proposed a re-election of incumbent president Sergio Mattarella.[8][9][10]

On the occasion of the 2022 referendum on justice, he promoted the reasons for the yes, joining, as one of its major exponents, the Committee for the yes.[11]

In the early political elections of 25 September 2022 he was a candidate for the Chamber of Deputies in the single-member constituency of Treviso for the center-right and as the leader of the Brothers of Italy in the multi-member Veneto. Nordio was elected in the uninominal with 56.2%.[12]

On 22 October 2022, Nordio was appointed Minister of Justice in the government led by Giorgia Meloni, who became the first woman to serve as Prime Minister of Italy.

Political positions

Nordio considers himself a conservative liberal, a pro-Europeanist and an Atlanticist, while having an admiration for Winston Churchill.[13] In 1967 he joined the Italian Liberal Party, but he had to leave the party upon becoming a magistrate.[14][15] After retiring, he joined the new Italian Liberal Party, of which he was a member of the committee of the guarantors until 2022.[16]
