Italian intelligence services are "at
work" on possible threats from Iran to Italy, Foreign Minister
Antonio Tajani said Wednesday.
"The United States is the United States, we are Italy. "Our
intelligence and our police forces are working to ensure the
safety of all our citizens and they are doing so in ways that
are indispensable at a time like this," said Tajani, who is also
deputy premier and leader of the centre-right post Berlusconi
Forza Italia party.
"Therefore there is great protection - Tajani underlined - not
only in all the Israeli diplomatic offices in Rome and in all
the Jewish places of worship in Italy.
"All the police forces are at work, the penitentiary police in
the prisons, the financial police following the financial flows.
"The intelligence naturally works to prevent any negative action
- concluded the minister - and I have great confidence in the
Minister of the Interior, Matteo Piantedosi: he is working very
well and knows the machine very well".
