Italian Deputy PM Salvini Calls for 'Bridges of Dialogue' on Ukraine Conflict
Matteo Salvini said his aim is to help end the war in Ukraine so that diplomacy can replace weapons, according to Russian state news agency TASS.
Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini has emphasized the importance of building "bridges of dialogue" in relation to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, according to a report by TASS, Russia's state news agency.
Salvini said his goal is "to end" the Ukrainian conflict so that "weapons are laid down and diplomacy can play its role again," TASS reported, citing the Italian official's remarks.
The report did not provide additional details on the context, venue or date of Salvini's statement, nor did it include further elaboration on specific diplomatic steps he envisions.
Salvini, who leads Italy's League party and serves as Deputy Prime Minister, has previously expressed views on the Ukraine conflict, though TASS's report does not detail his prior positions or any accompanying policy proposals in this instance.
TASS did not attribute the statement to any specific interview, press conference or official document, and no independent confirmation of the remarks was immediately available.
