Defense Minister Roberta Pinotti
told the Senate Thursday Italy is ready to help the
internationally recognized Libyan government in Tobruk if it
requests assistance. "We recognize the Tobruk parliament as
legitimate," she said. "It has not so far requested aid in
combating terrorism but it could, and if so we have maximum
willingness to collaborate...(however) we are not talking about
a mission on Libyan soil or at Libyan borders".
