"Tomorrow morning I will be with President Draghi in Algeria to sign a gas agreement that will allow us to deal with any Russian blackmail on gas. Unfortunately we are late as a country, we had to diversify much earlier but we have many partners and friends around the world".
This is what the Foreign Minister, Luigi Di Maio said, responding to reporters in Maddaloni (Caserta), where he visited the Children's Village, a historic school, where he awarded the Red Cross.
"In the last month and a half I have been in Algeria, Qatar, Congo, Angola, Mozambique, Azerbijan: all these countries have expressed their willingness to increase supplies to Italy", he added.
