Premier Giuseppe Conte said after a
NATO summit Thursday that "Italy has inherited spending
commitments as far as the contribution to NATO concerns which we
have not altered. Therefore there is no additional spending".
Conte said Thursday that "I am drafting a letter to Juncker,
Tusk and the European institutions to push Europe on the
implementation of those innovative principles on immigration
that emerged from the European Council".
He said he had discussed migrants in a tete-a-tete with
German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Conte added that there was no "acrimony or conflict" with
French President Emmanuel Macron and "we will defend our
positions everywhere".
