Foreign Minister Angelino Alfano on
Thursday phoned British counterpart Boris Johnson to say that
"we are very concerned about the case of Serghei Skripal, which
has put many human lives at risk and we express our strong
solidarity with the British government and people".
He said "the use of a chemical agent, banned by international
conventions, on British territory is particularly serious".
Alfano said "we are following very carefully the
international debate on the affair and we will not fail to give
our support for all actions aimed at guaranteeing safety and
security and the respect for international law".
