Deputy Premier and Foreign Minister
Antonio Tajani on Wednesday urged all sides in the Middle East
to work for a de-escalation and prevent a conflict causing more
victims, particularly among civilians.
Addressing the Lower House and Senate foreign affairs and
defence committees with Defence Minister Guido Crosetto, Tajani
said the "call we continue to issue to everyone, including
Israel, is to work for a de-escalation and avoid a conflict
causing more victims especially among the civilian population.
In talks with his Israeli counterpart, Israel Katz, Tajani said
he "insisted not only on the safeguard of our military, but also
on the need to prevent a repeat of what happened in Gaza with
the Lebanese population.
"We must avoid too many innocent victims again", he noted.
