“There is high anxiety in Italy over the war provoked by Russia in Ukraine and how much it is disturbing the life of the world,” said Mattarella.
His comments came while receiving the President of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, Võ Văn Thưởng, at the Quirinale Palace in Rome.
“We have talked about the arms race that subtracts energy from other areas. For this reason, constant efforts are required for peace, a just peace,” continued the president.
This, he said, is all the more true “in the light of the dramatic consequences of Russia’s decision to suspend the grain agreement”.
“A common effort is therefore urgently needed to arrive at a prospect of peace.”
