(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 29 - "A strong Italy-France axis is of both bilateral and European interest and we have a duty to cultivate it. The signing of the Quirinal Treaty represents a leap of quality that sees the two countries increasingly move in unison on main themes of the European and international agenda. Relations on the cultural level are rooted in history. On the economic level, the two countries are mutually second-largest trading partners. And on the political level, Italy and France are founders of the EU, both members of the G7 and G20, both with strong Mediterranean projection and the interest in a partnership that makes the two countries weigh in the European and international scenarios is evident. The Treaty is the instrument that gives substance to this complementarity,foreseeing shared understandings and actions in the many fields of common interests.
Today in Europe, Draghi and Macron are the most influential personalities and together they will be able to give a strong impetus to the revival of European integration by ensuring that the Conference on the Future of Europe proposes the reforms necessary for a more intense and effective European cohesion ".
