African Union Commission President
Moussa Faki said Monday the AU would have liked to be consulted
on Italy's ambitious Mattei Plan for Africa, addressing Premier
Giorgia Meloni at the Italy Africa Summit at the Senate in Rome.
"Madam Prime Minister, on the Mattei Plan you propose we would
have wished to be consulted," he said in his speech to the
summit.
"Africa is ready to discuss the contours and modalities of
implementation.
"I insist on the need to move from words to deeds, we can no
longer be content with promises, often unfulfilled.
"Italy's stance in favour of a new paradigm of partnership with
Africa is highly regarded on the continent," said the former
prime minister of Chad.
