Italy-Africa: Melons, quality food for all, not synthetic – “We are not only committed to food security but also to food safety, we don't just want to guarantee food for everyone but quality food for everyone.

Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said this in her speech at the Italy-Africa summit underway in the Senate chamber.
Meloni, the Mattei Plan starts from 5.5 billion – The Mattei Plan “can count on 5.5 billion euros between credits, gift operations and guarantees: around 3 billion from the Italian climate fund and 2.5 billion and a half from the development cooperation fund”.

Meloni, Piano Mattei starts from North Africa and the sub-Saharan area – “The Mattei Plan is a concrete plan of strategic interventions, concentrated on a few medium-long term priorities, education and training, health and agriculture, water and energy. We have identified some African nations in the sub-Saharan and North African quadrant” which will then be expanded ” following an incremental logic”.

Meloni, Africa has a place of honor on the agenda of the Italian G7 – Italy makes a “precise foreign policy choice, which will lead to reserving Africa a place of honor in the agenda of our G7 presidency”. Prime Minister Giorgi Meloni said this in her speech at the Italy-Africa summit in the Senate. Italy, he added, is “committed to demonstrating that we are aware of how interconnected the destiny of our continents is, and that it is possible to imagine and write a new page in our relations, a cooperation between equals, far from every predatory temptation and charitable approach”.

Faki: “We would have liked to be consulted on the Mattei Plan”
“Madam Prime Minister, we would have hoped to be consulted on the Mattei Plan that you are proposing. Africa is ready to discuss the contours and methods of implementation. I insist on the need to move from words to deeds, we can no longer be satisfied with promises, often not maintained”. Thus the president of the African Union Commission Moussa Faki, in his speech at the Italy-Africa summit, addressing Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. “Italy's position in favor of a new paradigm of partnership with Africa is highly regarded on the continent”, said the former prime minister of Chad.
Meloni, the Italy-Africa summit was a success
