Foreign Minister Angelino
Alfano said Tuesday "the Taormina summit (in May) will be the
last G7, I hope that the next G7 will be a fresh G8" with
Russia. Speaking at the Atlantic Council in Washington, Alfano
explained that the Ukraine crisis must first be resolved by
implementing the Minsk Accords. Alfano has frequently voiced the
hope that Moscow can be brought back into the G8 format, but has
stated that the Taormina summit in the iconic Sicilian city on
May 26-27 is "too soon".
