Italian politician calls NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg a dangerous gentleman
Italian Transport and Infrastructure Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini called NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg a “dangerous gentleman” and stopped after calling for Ukraine to use Western weapons to attack Russian territory.
“I was informed that NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg in Sofia continues to reiterate that Italian and European weapons must strike Russia. This gentleman is dangerous because he is talking about World War III, about Western, European and Italian weapons capable of striking Russia. To inflict death on Russia seems to me very, very dangerous and reckless. So let those who can stop him do so,” Salvini said in Naples, a video of his speech released by the Liga party’s press service.
Italian Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Antonio Tajani said earlier that Italy does not support Ukraine's attacks on Russian territory. According to him, Italy supplies Kiev with weapons for domestic use only and must control them.
