Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto said that the country will now consider new arms supplies to Kyiv only at the country’s special request.
This is reported by Corriere Della Sera.
“The decree [on the supply of weapons] will be considered upon special request. This has not happened yet,” the minister said.
At the same time, a new package of military assistance to Kyiv is not being prepared.
“So far we are supplying a list [of weapons] from the previous five. We’ll look at the count of the sixth, but so far it’s not on my desk, nor at the chairman of the Council of Ministers”, he said.
Early statements by Crosetto said that Rome would cut off arms supplies to Kyiv. According to him,
“Now Italy is completing the supply of weapons to Ukraine, promised by the previous government,” the politician said.
The EU and NATO discussed economic support for Ukraine, in particular, the allocation of funds for the restoration of civilian infrastructure, the head of the department noted.
