“We must cultivate a close dialogue with the new regime that appears, at least in words on a fairly relaxed attitude, but to do so the international community must not make mistakes made in other dossiers: China and Russia must sit at the table and then there is the Pakistan which plays an important role. An arrogant attitude must not be assumed, the West must involve everyone to maintain a close dialogue with the Taliban: this is the most effective tool to protect the work done in these 20 years, the results achieved and guarantee safety to the people who are there. They are results that must be kept tooth and nail and by all possible means ». Thus Giuseppe Conte at the presentation of the book “We do not make ceremonies! A walk in the events of the State Protocol” by Enrico Passaro. The former premier then added: «At this moment it is absolutely a priority, not only for Italy, for the entire international community to create humanitarian corridors to secure all people who are in danger. First of all, the people who collaborated. There is a moral duty ».
Di Maio: “We must judge them by actions, not by words”
«It is important to act in a coordinated manner towards the Taliban. We must judge them by their actions, not by their words. ” The foreign minister, Luigi Di Maio, said at the G7 Foreign Affairs, according to what is learned. “We have some leverage, albeit limited, on them such as isolation from the international community and the continuation of development assistance provided so far,” added the minister. “We must maintain a firm position on respect for human rights and freedoms, and transmit clear messages all together”, was the invitation to the other international partners.
Woods: thank goodness for Chigi not Conte but Draghi
«To say that we need to talk to the Taliban for their ‘relaxing statements’ while the mothers throw their children over the barbed wire to save them and while the Taliban go house to house looking for women means understanding little of foreign policy. And understand nothing of the Taliban. Luckily in Chigi there is Draghi and not Conte ». The parent company of Iv in the Camera Maria Elena Boschi writes on her social profiles.
Calderoli: talking with traps?
“The fact that the lawyer Giuseppe Conte advocates dialogue with the Taliban and recognizes them as interlocutors, also recognizing ‘the Islamic emirate’, speaks volumes about how low the authority and credibility in Italy’s foreign policy were up to six months ago … It takes two to talk, but did Conte understand that for these here the only law is the Islamic shaaria? But have you seen what they are doing in these early days? Do we have to talk to these throat cutters? I really have no words … ». This was stated by Roberto Calderoli, vice president of the Senate and member of the League.
Better: Does Conte want to talk to the Taliban? Embarrassed for him
On the sentence of Giuseppe Conte regarding the need to “cultivate a close dialogue” with the Taliban, Gennaro Migliore, deputy of Italia Viva, in an interview with blogger Dario D’Angelo, declares: “I am embarrassed for him since we are still busy in the evacuation phases of our personnel and of those who have they are trying to save themselves from the probable Taliban revenge ». And again: “We are on the first day of military control by the Taliban and there are already dead in Jalalabad among the demonstrators, we have mothers throwing their children over the barbed wire to have them saved by the Alliance military and there it is those who, like Giuseppe Conte, dare to speak of the new regime as if this were a regime like any other, credited as the leader of a country. I basically think that they are completely unpresentable sentences on the one hand. On the other hand, however, they are also the index of which alliance Conte intends to promote ».
Sgarbi: Conte, from people’s lawyer to Taliban lawyer is instant
Vittorio Sgarbi defines the statements of ‘credit’ of Giuseppe Conte, leader of the 5 Stars, on the Taliban as “shameful”. And he explains: “While the first news arrives from Kabul of house-to-house round-ups by the Taliban, of women fleeing and hiding for fear of retaliation, of shooting at the crowd, of terrified children seeking shelter at the airport, the leader dei 5 Stelle Giuseppe Conte, increasingly embarrassing, hopes for ‘a close dialogue with the Taliban, the regime has proved to be relaxing’. Its position is that of China. There is nothing to say: from advocate of the people to advocate of the Taliban is a moment ».
