Italy To Provide NATO Logistical Support Amid Iran-Israel Escalation: Gianni Vernetti
Former Italian Deputy Foreign Minister Gianni Vernetti says Italy will "contribute through logistical support and military bases" as part of the NATO coalition responding to the Iran-Israel escalation. He warns that the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and vulnerabilities at key maritime chokepoints - including Hormuz, Bab el-Mandeb and even the Suez Canal - pose significant risks to Europe. Vernetti highlights that countries like Italy and India must work together through initiatives like the IMEC corridor to reduce dependence on unstable routes.
