The Vice-President of the Italian Senate responsible for the Italian League, Roberto Calderoli, confirmed today that Italy will never recognize the government of the Taliban movement in Afghanistan.
The Italian Aki news agency quoted Calderoli as saying in a press conference that the Taliban's demand for Rome to be recognized, as executions and persecutions continue in defiance of all civil rights, shows that ""the movement does not follow what is happening in international politics."
Calderoli referred to previous statements made by the head of the new Politburo of the Italian Five Star Movement, Giuseppe Conte, in which he talked about the possibility of opening a dialogue channel with the Taliban seven months ago, but this request will never be accepted under the current Mario Draghi government in the country.
Last month, Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi and Russian President Vladimir Putin stressed in a phone call the need to continue to combat the spread of terrorist ideology and the drug threat emanating from the territory of Afghanistan. Peace and stability in Afghanistan.
