Italy is working with Germany on
enhanced bilateral cooperation, Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio
said Thursday saying that the recent landmark accord boosting
ties with France was not aimed at excluding others.
"We are working on a plan of action to boost bilateral relations
with Berlin," Di Maio told the parliamentary foreign affairs
committees.
"The Quirinal Treaty (with France) can certainly not be
interpreted as aimed at excluding anyone. We are inclusive. And
we will remain so. For this reason Italy has for some time been
working to boost cooperation with other important European
countries like Germany too".
Italo-German contacts have been ongoing at a technical level for
several months, said the minister, adding that h will see the
new German foreign minister this weekend in Liverpool.
