He emphasized that Italy seeks "to achieve a ceasefire for at least 30 days, which will allow Ukraine and Russia to start constructive negotiations."

In addition, the Italian authorities are working to increase defense spending, including in cooperation with other EU countries.

We discussed many issues related to cooperation between us, including European defense, in which we all believe, we also talked about security spending, we talked about the requests that NATO makes to us. I have already said that Italy is in favor of increasing security spending. I want to be optimistic and I believe that an agreement will eventually be reached so that the AIA summit can be a great success
