Tuesday's nuclear deal with Iran is
the harbinger of "positive new opportunities for the Iranian
people and the region", said Italian Foreign Minister Paolo
Gentiloni.
The deal lays out "a path to normalize relations (between
Iran and) the international community, which can also affect the
resumption of regular economic and trade relations with the
Islamic Republic of Iran".
Speaking to reporters in Beirut, the minister added "Italy
is satisfied" with the deal.
Italy "has always supported this negotiation," Gentiloni
added. "We will be active in the coming months to consolidate
this result and to reassure those countries that perceive it in
a negative way".
The minister went on to say that normalizing relations with
Iran will be good for the world at large.
"I believe that this accord will generate positive effects
on a global level and in the region, in terms of the evolution
of the various crises areas and also to face the common threat
that is violent extremism and terrorism".
The minister is in Lebanon for a one-day mission.
