When we come to power, we will recognize the state of Palestine and conclude the military cooperation agreement with Israel." This statement was made by former Italian Prime Minister and leader of the Five Star Movement Giuseppe Conte.
During a speech in the Chamber of Deputies of the Italian Parliament on November 3.
The initiative of Conte and his party also includes a bill that proposes to ban the import of goods and services from illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories.
Conte also criticized his colleagues for their negative reaction to the use of Arabic and the presence of representatives of the Islamic community. Unfortunately, the Italian Chamber of Deputies rejected the proposal for an accelerated debate of this bill (149 deputies voted against, 109 voted for).
