Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani has clarified that Italy will not send soldiers to Ukraine and prohibits Kyiv from using the weapons sent by Italy to strike Russian territory. Tajani emphasized that all weapons provided by Italy should be used solely within Ukrainian territory. This stance aligns with Italy's constitutional principles, particularly Article 11, which states that Italy rejects war. Additionally, Italy is likely to send a second SAMP/T air defence system to Ukraine in response to Kyiv's demands for greater defense capabilities. This system, currently deployed in Kuwait, is expected to be returned to Italy and then sent to Ukraine. The decision, reported by Sky News, Reuters, and Corriere della Sera, may be finalized after a summit of leaders of the Group of Seven on June 13-15.
