Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on
Tuesday told the Lower House ahead of a European Council that
Italy is ready to dialogue with the new Syrian leadership, as
part of shared evaluations and actions with European and
international partners, following the overthrow of former
president Bashar al-Assad's regime.
"The fall of Assad's regime is good news, rightly celebrated by
the Syrian population after over a decade of civil war.
"The rebel forces that have established themselves are
heterogeneous, they have a different provenance and potentially
contrasting interests", Meloni said in her communications to the
House.
"There is obviously concern for the future of the nation.
"Italy, the only G7 nation to have an open embassy in Damascus,
is ready to dialogue with the new Syrian leadership, obviously
in a context of shared evaluations and actions with European and
international partners", said Meloni.
