Former Italian prime minister: I will tear up the military agreement with Israel

Giuseppe Conte said he would recognize a Palestinian state and cancel Italy’s military cooperation agreement with Israel if his political movement returns to power, according to Jamaran. Conte made the remarks while supporting a Five Star Movement proposal to ban imports of goods and services from Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories. He framed the vote on the proposal as a choice between Italy’s adherence to democratic values and international law and abandoning those principles. (Source: Jamaran)
