Meloni, more military spending to avoid leaving Italy exposed

Meloni, more military spending to avoid leaving Italy exposed

As Prime Minister "Conte has signed the commitment to increase defense spending by 0.8%. I learn today that the M5s did not agree with that commitment, I did. This government signs this commitment" to increase spending military "because he shares it. Because, let's look around: the Chaos scenarios are multiplying, I am asked in one scenario like this to leave Italy exposed? We cannot do it because we know the price a nation pays when is unable to defend itself. We cannot do it even if we know that the consensus issue exists. We are always ready to take responsibility". Giorgia Meloni said this at the in response to the debate on the European Council currently underway at Room. "I have already said - he then added - that Italy is not militarily engaged, did not participate and does not participate, does not the use of the bases was requested, which however could be used only with government permission and after a passage parliamentarian". "I believe it is unrealistic to speculate on scenarios that they did not occur, certain decisions are not taken on a sound basis ideological. In any case I can say that I don't think it will happen, but I can assure you that such a decision will have to be made parliamentary passage, unlike what happened when we weren't in government".
