Italy would like to get a clear UN mandate before sending troops to a peacekeeping mission on Ukraine. This was stated by a member of the ruling party of Italy Giangiacomo Calovini, reports The Guardian.
Giangiacomo Calovini, a deputy from the ruling Brothers of Italy party, a member of the foreign affairs committee of the Italian parliament, said on BBC Radio 4's Today program that his country is not against peacekeeping operations.
"We are absolutely not against sending Italian troops to help the population... We can send troops only if there is a clear UN mandate, and at the moment this is not possible.
I think it's too early and we have to wait for it. After the decision of the UN headquarters, there are no problems for Italy, but now it is very, very early for us," the politician said.
