Meloni: “Huge potential risks. Iran should seize the opportunity for a nuclear deal”
The situation in the Middle East, after the American attack on Iran, was the focus of the communications of the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni , to the Chamber. Tomorrow there will be a repeat in the Senate. The appointment was already scheduled in view of the European Council on Thursday and Friday. Tomorrow Meloni will then fly to The Hague for the NATO summit where military spending will be discussed as well as the Middle Eastern crisis.
The debate on Meloni's communications begins in the Chamber
The general discussion on the communications of the Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in view of the EU Council has begun in the Chamber. The speeches will last about a couple of hours, after which the Prime Minister's reply will follow, the voting declarations and the votes.
Meloni: “Iran should seize the opportunity for a nuclear deal”
"Iran must seize the opportunity for an agreement" with Washington on "its nuclear program." This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, speaking about the conflict in Iran in the Chamber of Deputies.
Libya, Meloni: "EU should exercise its influence to respect truce"
"The violent events in Tripoli in recent weeks demonstrate that we cannot afford to neglect Libya. What happens in Libya has immediate repercussions on the security of the European Union and Italy is by far the nation most exposed to potential risks and threats. The situation on the ground remains very fragile and unpredictable and Italy fully supports the efforts to consolidate the ceasefire through dialogue but we ask that the EU also exert all its influence so that the parties continue to unconditionally respect the truce, ensuring every effort to avoid further civilian casualties or damage to infrastructure". This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni .
Meloni: “There has been a distorted ideological lens on safe countries”
The European strategy to fight illegal immigration "also includes European repatriation centers in third countries." Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni emphasized this while speaking in the Chamber. Meloni added that "the EU list of safe countries" has done justice to "a distorted ideological lens that we have witnessed" in recent months. "Italy has been and is at the forefront of this European debate," she added.
Migrants, Meloni: “Italy at the forefront of the debate”
"Italy is at the forefront of the debate" regarding migrants and "even in this European Council we will work" on this issue. "We want to continue to seek increasingly effective solutions". This was stated by the President of the Council, Giorgia Meloni , in her communications to the Chamber.
Meloni: “Doing more for defense is a strategic necessity”
"We are ready to do more for defense, for us it is a strategic necessity that we cannot ignore because no nation and organization of states can be independent and sovereign if it entrusts its defense to others. This has implications that go beyond the issue of defense itself, because it involves commercial dynamics, that is, the possibility of defending one's national interests. But if you don't defend, you don't decide and you cannot consider yourself free". This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in the Chamber.
Meloni: “Concrete objectives for the reconstruction of Ukraine”
"We intend to continue to support Ukraine in its legitimate self-defense also in the perspective of reconstruction, one of the most important bets for a free and sovereign nation". And at the Rome conference in July "we will guarantee the commitment to the Ukrainian people" for a future of "peace and well-being. It is an ambitious challenge that we can win if we work together and also mobilize private individuals". This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni , saying she is convinced that "concrete objectives" will be achieved towards a "free and prosperous Ukraine".
Meloni: “We are moving towards a new framework of stability in Lebanon-Syria-Palestine”
"We are starting to see a new picture in the Middle East with a new leadership in Lebanon and Syria. Italy will do everything possible for a new triangle of stability in Lebanon, Syria and the future Palestinian state. A regional picture in which Israel must be seen as a partner and not as an enemy. An epochal picture where extremists will try to insert themselves". This is what Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said.
Defense, Meloni: "We will keep our commitments. No to a defenseless Italy"
"We need clear and sustainable commitments." This is what Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said, speaking about the NATO summit that will be held in The Hague on common defense. "The commitment is to reach 3.5%" in defense spending and 1.5 in security spending. "Important and necessary commitments that Italy will respect. The alternative would be more expensive. We will not leave Italy exposed and defenseless" in the face of chaos, says the Prime Minister.
Ukraine, Meloni: “Pressure towards Russia. Ok to other sanctions”
"Russia must commit to sitting at the negotiating table". This is what Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said in the Chamber of Deputies. "We need coordinated pressure" on Russia, "we are ready for another package" of sanctions. "We intend to support Ukraine also in its reconstruction", says the Prime Minister.
Middle East, Meloni: "We need a political process towards a two-state solution"
"A political process that leads to the two-state solution" in the Middle East is needed, with "courageous choices first and foremost on the part of Israel", "real security guarantees" and "a full normalization" of relations between Israel and the Arab world. This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni .
Meloni: “Tehran embassy moving to Oman under consideration”
"The possibility of temporarily relocating the embassy in Tehran to Oman is being studied." Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said this to the Chamber.
Meloni thanks workers in Gaza: “We support and protect them”
"Allow me in this Chamber to thank the humanitarian workers, doctors and paramedics who operate in the Strip: we are close to them, we will do everything to support and protect them". Thus the President of the Council Giorgia Meloni in the communications to the Chamber.
Meloni: “A cohesive action is needed for a negotiation outcome”
With the other leaders, in the Middle East "we agree on a cohesive action for a negotiated outcome. Tajani spoke with Secretary of State Rubio and will repeat the position at the European summit". This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in the Chamber.
Meloni: “It is dangerous that Iran has nuclear weapons”
"We consider it very dangerous for Iran to acquire nuclear weapons, not only because of the danger in itself, but because it would start a race for nuclear weapons in other areas of the region, triggering a domino effect." This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to the Chamber, in her communications on the next European Council.
Meloni: “Italy’s priority is a ceasefire in Gaza, Israel must stop”
"We will also reiterate another objective, the ceasefire in Gaza, where Israel's legitimate reaction to a senseless attack is taking dramatic and unacceptable forms." This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to the Chamber, in her communications on the next European Council.
Meloni: “No planes took off from Italian bases”
"I confirm what Ministers Tajani and Crosetto have already said: no plane took off from Italian bases" to strike Iran "and our nation has not participated in any way in military actions". This was stated by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni in her communications to the Chamber.
Meloni: “We take care of energy supplies”
"We have taken care of ensuring Italy has the necessary energy supplies." Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said this to the Chamber, in her communications on the next European Council. "The worsening of the crisis generates concern about repercussions."
Meloni: “EU should focus on issues that make a difference”
"It is even more sensible today to refer to the principle of subsidiarity, often made to the EU, today even more than yesterday it is necessary to focus on the issues on which we can make a difference and not on the detailed matters that can be better" managed "at a national level". This was said by the Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to the Chamber, in the communications on the next European Council.
Meloni: “We understand the risks, dialogue with Parliament”
"The international situation is extremely complex." This is what Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said in her statements to the Chamber ahead of the European Council on Thursday and Friday. "We will discuss what the priorities should be and what initiatives to implement. "It is clear how sensible that reference to the principle of subsidiarity of the European Union is today. We need to focus" on important matters "and not on those that can be regulated at a national level. The European Council will focus on the latest developments in the Middle East", the crisis between Israel and Iran "has worsened. We understand well the enormous risks associated" with the escalation of tension, she adds. Dialogue with Parliament is important, "I will do my best to broaden this dialogue", she observes.
Meloni: European Council in extremely complex international situation
"The European Council on Thursday and Friday will be held in a particularly complex international context, after Ukraine and the situation in Gaza, the escalation in the Middle East has been added. The European Council will make us reflect on what the priorities of the European Union are". Giorgia Meloni said this in her speech to the Chamber.
M5s: no to Rearm Eu and no to subordination to the United States
There are thirty-six commitments that the Five Star Movement is asking the government for in the resolution on the communications of the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, to the Chambers, in view of the European Council of 26 and 27 June. Among these, a clear no to the Rearm Eu plan and a clear position regarding the role of the institutions and values of Europe that cannot be subordinate to the United States. The Movement, as stated in the text first signed, in the Chamber, by the group leader Riccardo Ricciardi , commits the executive "to demonstrate, in all institutional, national and European venues, the firm opposition of the Italian Government to the European rearmament plan 'Rearm Europe'" and commits it "to reaffirm the centrality and strategic weight of the institutions and founding values of the European Union, instead of a mere subordination to the international political direction of the administration of the United States of America (and Israel) that risks weakening democracy and not guaranteeing the security of Europe".
Pd will abstain on the resolutions of the other oppositions
The Democratic Party will abstain from the resolutions that the other oppositions will present today to the Chamber, where the communications of the Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni are expected in view of the European Council. This is what the Democratic Party group leader in the Chamber, Chiara Braga , reported to journalists. The Democratic Party will vote against the majority resolution.
"We will abstain on the other resolutions, even if we agree with several points - Braga explained - because the position of the Democratic Party is the one represented by our resolution". "On that of the government - he concluded - we will vote against, unless we hear words that are radically different from those we have heard in recent days".
Avs: Government should condemn Israel's attacks and dissociate itself from US
The Italian government should express "a clear condemnation of Israel's military attack on Iran as a clear violation of the United Nations Charter and call for a complete cessation of hostilities; firmly dissociate itself from and contest in every international forum the US attack on Iran as an irresponsible act, seriously damaging to international law and with potentially catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region and the world". This is what is stated in the Avs resolution in view of the communications of the Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni , today in the Chamber.
Pd: diplomatic effort, no to use of bases in Italy
"Today will be an important step and we will ask the Prime Minister to clarify Italy's position in such a complex context, our country's position on the role of Europe and the relationship with the Trump administration." This was stated by the leader of the Democratic Party in the Chamber, Chiara Braga , at the end of the joint meeting of the Democratic groups. "The need is to resume a negotiating table as soon as possible to stop an escalation that risks having dramatic consequences. Europe must make a clear and authoritative voice heard with respect to all the dossiers." In the resolution presented by the Democratic Party, among other things, there is the request to the government on the "non-availability to use the bases present in Italy for a war that must be stopped as soon as possible. On this we expect the Prime Minister to express clear words also in the Chamber. The war must be stopped as soon as possible with more diplomatic initiative which is a fundamental trait of our country." As for the behavior of the Democratic Party in the Chamber, "we have expressed our position and in our resolution, we will abstain from the others even though we agree with some points. We will vote against that of the government", Braga underlined.
