Today in our English news programme. Relief from all Italian political forces over the ceasefire agreement in Palestine. The Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani have already said that Italy is ready to do its part to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people and possibly to be part of a military contingent to ensure the ceasefire. Opposition leader Elly Schlein has again called for Italy to recognise the State of Palestine.
The Pope today received staff from international press agencies, and news has arrived from the Vatican that the Pontiff has signed his first apostolic exhortation, dedicated to the poor.
Finally, yesterday there was a celebration at the Quirinale and Palazzo Chigi for the Italian women’s and men’s volleyball teams, who won the world championship.
