Tajani “We will do everything to prevent what we have seen in Australia in Italy too”

ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “The government, together with law enforcement and secret services, is doing everything to prevent what we saw in Australia even in Italy: anti-Semitism is a dangerous phenomenon, with rigurgiti around the world and many bad teachers on the Palestinian question that lead to confuse the Israeli government with the citizens of Jewish religion.” To say it is the vicepremier and foreign minister Antonio Tajani at Tg2 Post. “Jews from all over the world must not pay for a war that is fighting in the Middle East – Tajani continues, – I believe that every Italian citizen of Jewish origin can turn with the kippah, go to the synagogue and manifest their faith throughout the national territory. We are on the eve of the start of phase 2: Unfortunately there are still actions of Israel against Hamas, which in turn has not yet left the weapons. Even Abu Mazen, whom we met last night here in Rome, strongly condemns what Hamas does: we must support the Palestinian National Authority, which wants to remain there without weapons and guarantees peace much more than Hamas. Italy is well seen by both Palestinians and Israelis: We are at the forefront of building a peace, we will continue to be at the forefront of European countries. I believe that at this moment we must give a strong signal against anti-Semitism: I believe that it would not be wrong to establish a new crime, since too many Jewish citizens are still being persecuted in the world today. We cannot forget the Shoah: no one must be killed because he practices a different religion or belongs to a certain people, persecuting is an unworthy thing.”.

LE PAROLE SUL CONFLITTO RUSSIA-UCRAINA

“Many steps have been taken forward, but there is still a lot to discuss in the territories,” he explained, answering a question from Director Antonio Preziosi, speaking of Ukraine. “In Ukraine, steps have been taken on several issues, but there is still a lot to discuss because Kiev does not want to give up the Donbass, which Russia did not conquer in full,” he added.

“The Russian offensive did not have great results from a military point of view, as they control about 19.5% of the Ukrainian territory including Crimea – Tajani continues, – They hit power plants and energy sources, but they did not conquer too much ground. Everyone tries to make Russia understand that they need a just peace and a deal: this would also benefit them, because they lose hundreds of thousands of men in the field and this is not a little. We must then revert the war industry into a peace industry: the problems are many, but you must not lose heart and encourage an agreement, supporting American action. Yesterday there was an important meeting in Berlin, attended by Meloni: we are builders of peace, but it cannot be a defeat for Ukraine and we must keep the issue of security under control. There was talk of a voluntary presence of European countries on the territory: what matters is that the Italian proposal was accepted to give rise to a kind of article 5 copy of that of NATO to guarantee security.”.

“It’s important – he adds – that this agreement is part of the United States, especially to ensure air safety: we all agree with financial support for Ukraine, the real issue concerns the possible use of Russian frozen goods because the legal basis is very flexible; If the European Court of Justice gave reason to Russia, in addition to making a political figure, all the money should be returned. Another solution for Ukraine can be the use of part of the Community budget: The ECB also expressed concern about the use of these frozen goods, we must not make mistakes. Italy’s perplexity concerns the absence of a legal basis: There may also be repercussions for our companies based in Russia. I think the League will vote for the arms decree, we have always voted together: Meloni was very clear, I don’t think there will be any problems from this point of view and I’m not worried about the League’s position because I am convinced that we will find a deal.”.
