ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “I hope and believe not. I don’t see any kicks. Relations are good both at institutional and economic level.” This was said by the President of the Council, Giorgia Meloni, interviewed by Maurizio Belpietro to “Il giorno de La Verità”, answering a question about the recent controversies with Donald Trump and about possible contraccolpi in relations with the US. “Cooperation with the United States is so solid that it does not depend on a social controversy. We must return the terms of foreign policy to the depth they have to be. The foreign policy is not Temptation Island, so much to stay at the memes that turned…”, he added. “I was truly impressed. I read the various reconstructions that were made, but I don’t know if they’re true. I do not intend to continue to feed this comparison, I think that our bilateral work with the United States must return to its normality,” he explained.
“I believe that Minister Tajani in the immediate future did well to cancel his mission” in the United States, “to give a signal, but once the message passes there is no need to go further. At Villa Taverna on the occasion of 4 July the Government will be present, even for respect to Ambassador Fertitta, who works a lot to maintain firm relations between Italy and the United States,” said the premier.
The situation in the Middle East: “The agreement is very complex, I remain optimistic, but it is not static optimism, it requires commitment and Italy intends to do its part. We cannot allow Iran to have nuclear weapons. No country in the region can and must feel threatened, it is for Israel but also for the Gulf countries. And there is the theme of freedom of navigation, which is a very big question. We cannot allow a toll on the Strait of Hormuz. It would be used as a weapon,” said Meloni. “Lebanon for us is fundamental, Italy has a history of work and commitment in the forefront. Today there is a direct parallel negotiation between Lebanon and Israel, and this is also a dial on which Italy can play a leading role. It is a topic I would like to discuss with Macron at the intergovernmental summit on Thursday, Italy and France,” he concluded.
