Italy PM says EU should be ready to impose new sanctions on Iran
The European Union should be ready to impose new sanctions on Iran if it does not facilitate an end to the crisis in the Middle East, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said on Thursday.
“If Tehran continues down the wrong path ... the EU must be ready to increase pressure through new targeted measures,” Meloni told parliament.
In a speech on Italy’s foreign policy positions ahead of an EU summit, Meloni also said recent comments on Italy by Israel’s far-right Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir were “unacceptable for Italy and also undignified for Israel.”
