Meloni “I suspect automatic renewal of the Defense Agreement with Israel”

VERONA (ITALPRESS) – “The relationship of Italy with the United States is a relationship that has been going on for a few years and does not concern the individual government. We try to do our best, clearly in given context, considering the United States our strategic and priority ally. But when you are friends and when you have allies, especially if they are strategic, you must also have the courage to say when you disagree, that is what I do every day. When I agree, I say I agree, when I disagree, I say I disagree because I believe that this is good for Europe, the United States and the West in general.” Thus the premier Giorgia Meloni at the margin of the visit to Vinitaly.

“In view of the current situation, the government decided to suspend the automatic renewal of the Defense Agreement with Israel,” the Prime Minister announced.

“The international situation is a situation on which we must continue to work to move forward the peace negotiations, make every effort possible to stabilize the situation and reopen the strait, which for us is fundamental, not only for fuels but also for fertilizers, another fundamental element for the sector we are talking about today,” he added.

The stop to the stability pact “would help certainly. Obviously we must see how it will go in the coming days, but I think that Europe should not underestimate the impact that this crisis can have in the coming months. I think it would make a huge error of assessment if he considered moving late. We are putting a number of issues in Europe, such as the issue of taking into account a suspension of the stability pact. Not understood as a measure that can be made by the individual Member State, but as a generalized measure, as well as the suspension of Ets and Cibam. We are determined to fight in Europe for the good of Europe, because we cannot always remain identical to ourselves while the world around us changes in a whirlwind way. We believe that those who today pose these issues are responsible and not irresponsible as some would,” he explained.

“What I said is what I think, the statements on the Pontiff were unacceptable” by Trump. “I express and renew my solidarity to Pope Leo and say more: frankly I would not feel comfortable in a society in which religious leaders do what political leaders say, say not in this part of the world,” he said about the story of Pope Leo and Trump.
