Italian politics reacts to the Israel-Iran conflict

The official position of the Italian government, led by Giorgia Meloni, is characterized by a balance between support for Israel's security and the search for a diplomatic solution that avoids military escalation. The government considers it a priority to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, but at the same time insists on the need to promote a de-escalation of the conflict and to keep the diplomatic path open.

The opposition, especially Democratic Party Secretary Elly Schlein, criticizes the government's lack of clarity, calling for a stronger stance against the military escalation and calling for a halt to both Netanyahu's actions and Iran's reactions. The opposition also demands that the government immediately report to Parliament on the developments in the crisis.
