The U.S. asked Italy to help with the situation in Gaza. This was reported by Bloomberg, citing its own source.
According to the agency, this request was made to the office of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni this week. It was conveyed through diplomatic channels. It is noted that the head of government will make the decision independently. Italy is uncertain whether it should join international stabilization forces in Gaza. The country did not sign the charter of the Peace Council for the Gaza Strip, created at the initiative of the U.S.
According to the Bloomberg source, the U.S. does not expect Italy to send troops to Gaza. The discussion is only about Italy training peacekeepers from other countries.
