I sat down with Robert Abela, Malta’s 14th Prime Minister, whose journey from teenage bodybuilder to the country’s highest office has been anything but ordinary. He revealed what it was like to step into power during one of Malta’s most fragile moments, the weight of leading a nation through COVID, and the personal cost of living up to his father’s legacy. Robert goes unfiltered on Malta’s booming economy, the hidden sacrifices behind growth, and his vision for the country in the next five years. He breaks down how bodybuilding discipline shapes his politics, the criticism that cut the deepest, and why life on the boat still matters more than politics.
