Premier Giuseppe Conte and not
Deputy Premier and Interior Minister Matteo Salvini should meet
French President Emmanuel Macron after France recalled its
ambassador citing "unprecedented attacks", a French government
spokesman said Friday.
Commenting on Salvini's willingness Thursday to meet Macron,
Benjamin Griveaux told Europe 1: "Dialogue has never been broken
off, but there is also a premier in Italy, his name is Giuseppe
Conte, he is the head of the Italian government and Macron has
met him many times".
He went on "as you know, these Italian ministers have already
sat down with their French counterparts on the occasion of the
various European councils they take part in".
