Middle East, Crosetto raises the alarm about the dangers of Russia and Iran: I am worried

Guido Crosetto does not underestimate the conflict situation between Israel and Hamas following the attack by Palestinian terrorists. The Minister of Defense, in an interview with Corriere della Sera, explains all his concerns about the Middle East: “It is a terrorist attack, almost a declaration of war, in the face of which there could only be Italy’s solidarity. We are thinking about the possible developments of this war, unexpected especially due to the intensity that has not been equaled in the last 20 years. A few days ago I said that I was worried about Iran perhaps more than Ukraine and everyone responded that I was getting too much sun. Hamas is not historically close to Iran, but we live in a phase where elements are coming together and common enemies are being identified. The Israeli reaction will be very harsh.”

“Israel – continues Crosetto – suffered a very deep wound, due to the form of the attack, the number of dead and prisoners and the images of barbaric murders. The reaction can only be strong, reopening a front that includes all the other actors who contributed to destabilizing the world in the last two years. The UN sees a dangerous precipice.” Crosetto is also asked about the risk of an expansion of the conflict and his words certainly do not reveal serenity, with an escalation just around the corner: “There are many elements of instability in the area, from Syria to Lebanon and Iran and Russia they may have an interest in destabilizing the area. I am also concerned about the 1,200 soldiers from the Unifil mission located on the border between Israel and Lebanon. The conflict with Hamas has flared up in the South, but the risk of destabilization It also concerns the North.”

“Would you like to reassure the representatives of the Jewish community in Italy?” the question asked to the founder of Fratelli d’Italia, which makes it clear how high our country’s threshold of attention is: “In Italy there is a warning because, unfortunately, these events could lead to a trail of anti-Semitism”.
