Hamas's accusation that Italy is
"part of the aggression against us" is false, Deputy Premier and
Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani said Tuesday.
Hamas's accusation about Italy 'attacking' the Palestinians "is
a blatant falsehood," Tajani said at a press conference in
Turin.
"Instead, it seems to me that we are helping the Palestinian
people given the material that arrived in Egypt yesterday and
today.
"We are insisting with Israel that the Palestinian people be
spared.
"We are against Hamas because it is a terrorist and criminal
organisation.
"We defend the right of the Palestinian people to have a state
but we will never say that we are friends of Hamas.
"Condemning Hamas terrorism means telling the truth."
