President Sergio Mattarella said
Monday that 19th-century power politics are back in today's
world.
"It is a period of great international tensions due to the many
conflicts and due to the return to 19th-century politics of
power," he told the Secretaries of Legation of the Farnesina
foreign ministry at the Quirinale presidential palace.
"It almost seems that we are seeing a return to a politics of
power that is alien to the times.
"There is an evident contrast with the needs of the world that
would require common and shared answers.
"It is truly a singular contradiction".
