Iran, Stefania Craxi: “My father’s ‘no’ to the US over Sigonella was a patriotic act”

Rome, 1 April (LaPresse) – ‘I was and remain very proud of how Bettino Craxi handled that crisis, defending Italy’s interests, its sovereignty and international law. That ‘no’ to America was a patriotic act. The final act of our Risorgimento.’ Stefania Craxi made this statement in an interview with Corriere della Sera, recalling the events of 1985 in Sigonella. A situation “not comparable” to that described by Defence Minister Guido Crosetto, but – Craxi adds – “at least I hope the newspapers will now stop writing that the Meloni government is kowtowing to Trump”.
