The government will brief the
House and Senate foreign affairs committees at 14:00 on
September 4 on the government's decision to send ambassador
Giampaolo Cantini to Cairo after cited progress in cooperation
over the torture and murder of student Giulio Regeni, committee
heads said Thursday. The briefing will focus on bilateral ties
and the situation in the Mediterranean, they said. The
announcement came a day after the government denied a New York
Times report that the US gave "explosive" proof that Egypt's
secret services tortured and murdered Regeni to the former
government of Matteo Renzi.
