ROME (ITALPRESS) – “We are at the dawn of a possible peace that could involve the entire region.” This was stated by Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani in an interview with the newspaper La Stampa regarding the truce in Gaza. “Now begins a long and complex diplomatic work to strengthen the truce,” Tajani stressed. “The next six weeks will be the key to lay the foundations for the transition from the first to the second phase of the ceasefire. The liberation of the first three young Israeli women is positive, but now the liberation of the Israeli hostages must continue and, at the same time, aid must be delivered to the Palestinian population. “Once the truce is stabilized, “it will be possible to revive the Abrahamic Accords, by which the Arab countries’ relations with Israel were intended to be normalized. That path was almost concluded, but it was interrupted with the October 7 attack. Now the threads have to be reknotted. “For the minister, “it would be a good idea to have an interposition mission sponsored by an international body like the UN. As long as it is Arab-led. It can help consolidate peace and strengthen the Palestinian Authority. We are still in an embryonic stage, but we would be ready to participate with a contingent. We need, more generally, a European presence in the Middle East. And in Palestine, Europe can play a role, if there is an agreement agreeable to both sides. “Asked if Italy has the goal of recognizing Palestine, the vice-premier replied this way, “Yes, our road leads there, but it takes time because Palestine must also be recognized by Israel and in turn it must recognize Israel. The unilateral initiatives I have seen so far from some countries do not serve Palestine nor peace.”
