[ad_1]

(ANSA) – ROME, SEPTEMBER 15 – Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio listened to the families of the crew of the fishing boats seized in Libya, the mayor of Mazara del Vallo and the shipowners, to whom he assured the maximum commitment of the government for a resolution positive of the matter. You learn from diplomatic sources. The pressure from Farnesina is known to be relentless: yesterday Di Maio heard for the first time from his Emirati counterpart and today he will listen to Russian Minister Lavrov. Both the Emirates and Moscow are two very influential players towards Benghazi. A government summit will be convened on the subject, because “the action must be unanimous,” explained the head of Farnesina. For years, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has advised the Italian navy against fishing in the waters where fishing boats were seized.
