Government sources on Tuesday hailed the conference on Libya that Italy is hosting in Palermo as a big success.
"The importance of a meeting like this should be highlighted because it was complicated to organize it.
Having organized it
is a big success for Italy," the sources said.
"We have to cheer for Italy. I understand some hate this
government, we get lots of mud thrown at us every day.
"It was written that the conference would be a failure, that
the lead players were not coming - senseless things.
"The lead players were all present. It is an offence to the
extraordinary diplomatic work that has been done to say they
were not present".
