New York (USA), 25 September (LaPresse) – ‘The response must respect the principle of proportionality, and Israel has exceeded that limit and, in doing so, has ended up violating humanitarian norms, causing a massacre among civilians. Italy has defined this choice as unacceptable and will vote in favour of some of the sanctions proposed by the EU against Israel.’ Giorgia Meloni said this in her speech before the UN General Assembly. ‘Russia has deliberately trampled on Article 2 of the UN Charter and still today shows no willingness to sit at the peace table, with destabilising effects,’ added the prime minister, according to whom Russia has inflicted a ‘deep wound on international law.’ "The architecture of the United Nations is no longer up to today's challenges. Multilateralism, dialogue and diplomacy, without institutions that function as they should, are just empty words,‘ continued the Prime Minister, stressing that ’a profound reform of the United Nations is necessary and urgent.‘ What is needed, she said, is ’a reform that is not ideological, but pragmatic and realistic. One that respects the sovereignty of nations and opens the way to shared solutions."
