Italy is one of Moscow's key
partners in the European Union, Russian President Vladimir Putin
said Wednesday at a ceremony in which ambassadors presented
their credentials, including Italy's Pasquale Terracciano who
thus officially started his mandate in Russia.
"Italy is one of our key partners in the EU," Putin told the
envoys.
"Moscow is certainly interested in deepening cooperation with
Italy with which we have cultural relations that are an example
for other nations," he said.
