Jens Stoltenberg has called on NATO allies supplying weapons to Ukraine to end the ban on using them to strike military targets in Russia. This was reported by the weekly The Economist, which interviewed the Secretary General of the Alliance.
Stoltenberg’s clear objective, although never named, is US President Joe Biden’s policy – writes the Economist – to control what Ukraine can and cannot attack with the systems provided by the Americans.
The immediate stop by the deputy prime minister and leader of the League Matteo Salvini: “Italy is not at war with anyone and if it was right to help Ukraine militarily, at the same time there is no question of lifting the ban” in Kiev “to strike military targets in Russia, just as I reiterate that the League is against sending even a single soldier to fight in Ukraine. We want peace, not the antechamber of the third world war”.

Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani also holds back: “We are an integral part of NATO but every decision must be taken in a collegial manner”. For Tajani “Kiev’s choices are Kiev’s choices. We will not send an Italian soldier to Ukraine and the military instruments sent by Italy are used inside Ukraine, we work for peace. The messages arriving from Russia also provoke a hybrid war that is being fought, but we must always work for peace and tone down.”
