(Adnkronos) – “We will work so that the Rome Conference” for the reconstruction of Ukraine, which will take place on 10 and 11 July, “can be a springboard for peace, also through greater investments in the country”. This was stated by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Antonio Tajani during the hearing at the Senate with the Minister of Defence Guido Crosetto on the outcomes of the NATO summit held in The Hague on 24 and 25 June.
“Military assistance to Ukraine must go hand in hand with cooperation in the civilian sphere”, said Tajani, explaining that “we wanted to make the commitment to reconstruction a key figure of our action”. Therefore, he continued, “we will help Ukraine in its reconstruction, contributing to its reform program and its path to joining the European Union. We are registering strong interest and we expect the active presence of numerous companies, of which almost 500 are Italian”.
