Foreign Minister Paolo Gentiloni
said Friday that Britain remained Italy's ally after voting to
leave the European Union. "As everyone knows, Italy would have
much preferred a different outcome, but it respects the
decision," he said. "But leave means leave. Great Britain will
certainly remain our friend and our ally in NATO but the
decision to leave the EU has been taken and it must be followed
up on".
