Italian government debates aid to Kyiv while Abu Dhabi holds talks on Ukraine's future
The Italian government coalition has split over the military aid to Ukraine, just after Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni secured a seat for Rome in the peace talks session in Abu Dhabi.
On November 10th, the Italian government presented the thirteenth aid package for Ukraine to the Copasir parliamentary committee, according to Defence Minister Guido Crosetto. However, Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti has yet to sign the measure, as it requires his personal approval due to the classified nature of the document.
Both the League Economy Minister and Defence Minister emphasize the importance of continuing support for Kyiv and maintaining a unified European stance. Despite disagreements, Deputy Prime Minister and Infrastructure Minister Matteo Salvini has also expressed concerns about the military aid to Kyiv. The package, which includes both civilian and military aid, remains a point of contention within the governing majority.
