(ANSA) - Rome, December 11 - Deputy Premier and Interior Minister Matteo Salvini said Tuesday that he was surprised that him describing Hezbollah as terrorists during a visit to Israel had caused a stir. "I don't understand the amazement that I have read about in a news agency item about calling Hezbollah Islamic terrorists," Salvini told a news conference in Jerusalem.
"If they dig underground tunnels that breach Israeli territory, I don't think they do so to do the shopping".
