Foreign Minister Angelino Alfano
said Thursday on arrival at a pre-EU summit session of the
European People's Party that Italy was already "part of the
multi-speed EU". He said "the important thing is that we have a
high level of ambition which can find an assessment point in
Rome (at a March 25 summit marking the 60th anniversary of the
Treaty of Rome). The goal may be a European defence system". The
EU summit on Thursday and Friday is expected to discuss German
Chancellor Angela Merkel's recent proposal for a multi-speed
Europe, as well as the migrant and asylum-seeker emergency.
