Stefan Tafrov shared a speech by Giorgia Meloni before the Senate, which he claimed was applauded even by the left. According to Meloni, as conveyed by Tafrov, if Ukraine stops defending itself, it will not bring peace but will mean occupation and a return to Soviet imperialism. She stated that the capitulation of people who defend their freedom cannot be called peace and that a lasting solution must be just. Tafrov pointed out that Meloni confirmed the unchanged position of the Italian government: support for Ukraine with attention to the civilian population, pressure on Moscow, and Euro-Atlantic unity. She described Donald Trump's agreement with Russia regarding diesel fuel as extremely risky. According to her, the rise in fuel prices is mainly related to the war in Iran, not Ukraine, and such an agreement would legitimize Moscow, provide it with new revenues for the war, and weaken sanctions. Meloni stated that Italy supports the cessation of attacks on energy infrastructure and noted President Volodymyr Zelensky's readiness to agree to this. She said she expects Russia to also stop the attacks and that Europe must not remain aloof, as the conditions of peace will affect the continent and its security. #Украйна #Европа #мир (translated)
