Italian Minister of Defense: Someone is trying to get the message across that Italy has decided to suspend the use of the bases by US assets. This is simply false, because the bases are active, in use, and nothing has changed. The Government continues to do what all Italian governments have always done, in full compliance with the commitments made in Parliament and the line reiterated by the Supreme Defense Council, in continuity with all previous Councils over the decades. International agreements clearly regulate and distinguish what requires specific government authorization (for which it was decided to always involve Parliament), without which nothing can be granted, and what is instead considered technically authorized because it is included in the agreements. A minister must only enforce them. Thirdly, there is no difference. Lastly, I want to reiterate that there is no cooling or tension with the US, because they know the rules that have governed their presence in Italy since 1954 as well as we do.
