The terrorist threat in Afghanistan
is concrete, Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio told a G7-EU-NATO
extraordinary summit on the Asian country Monday, according to
persons present.
Di Maio said the suicide-bomb attack at Kabul airport that
killed almost 200 including 13 US soldiers and more recent
rocket attacks thwarted by US defence systems showed that "the
terrorist threat in Afghanistan is concrete and must be
addressed".
He added "it is fundamental to maintain close cooperation in
facing the Afghan crisis."
Di Maio thanked US Secretary of State Antony Blinken for calling
the summit, which Di Maio said was "an important opportunity to
discuss a shared strategy".
