Work so that the dialogue channel does not fail, even in a moment of high voltage, in order to restart a negotiating phase as soon as the war is stopped: With this goal, as filtered by Palazzo Chigi, the government, the diplomatic network and intelligence services are concentrating efforts in the defined frame, immediately after the attack of Israel to Iran, together with the European, western and more moderate partners in the Middle Eastern and Gulf area, United Arab Emirates and Jordan in the lead.
Giorgia Meloni flew to Canada for the G7 Staying in close contact with the Undersecretary Alfredo Mantovano and with the ministers that follow the crisis closely, in a coordination convened in permanent form to ensure constant monitoring of the situation. The new war front will inevitably end up at the top of the Agenda of the Kananaskis summit, among the official works and bilaterals on the sidelines. Meloni should have one with the landlord, the Canadian Mark Carryy, and it is still to be understood if there will also be meetings with Donald Trump and the European partners, after the telephone interviews of these days. The summit in the rocky mountains of the province of Alberta was to be an opportunity to try to unlock the Ukrainian and commercial crisis between the USA and the EU. And instead he will have to face especially this other priority. With the other leaders, the premier will reiterate the Italian position. The deputy premier and foreign minister Antonio Tajani also exhibited it in his information in Parliament, after talking to the omologists of Israel and Iran asking the first to stop the attacks and the second not to go further with the reactions.
«Enough with the military escalation», the message of Romewhose posture follows a common director to the other great European capitals. Tajani clarified that Tehran exceeded “the red line”, reporting the information of the Israeli intelligence according to which “in less than six months Iran could have ordered 10 atomic bombs, and over 2,000 missiles to be able to launch them, towards Israel and beyond”. “In the face of a nuclear threat, there can be no ambiguity”, the foreign minister remarked, underlining “the right of Israel to guarantee his own survival”. These are delicate hours, in which the situation of the Italians in Iran is monitored (at the moment there is still no mention of evacuation, it is explained in the executive environments) and we analyze the risks of an enlargement of the conflict, between whirlpools of phone calls and through diplomatic and intelligence information. We try to understand even if the Israel project is to reach a reversal of the Iranian regime. Certainly the diplomacies from all over the world have recorded a certain coldness from the Arab countries against Iran. Nobody, we think in government environments, at the moment has a power or influence such as to decide the evolution of the conflict. But promoting the de-Escalation is the commitment on which Rome is concentrated: we must make sure to “do not cut the thread of dialogue”. Also on the US-Iran negotiations on nuclear power, which Italy remains ready to host again although the scenario has now become even more uncertain than a few days ago.
