The only peacekeeping option in
Ukraine is under the United Nations, Foreign Minister Antonio
Tajani said Friday.
"It seems premature to me to talk about peacekeeping operations
in Ukraine," said Tajani, who is also deputy premier, on the
sidelines of the presentation of a new Action Plan for the
acceleration of exports.
"Now we encourage the process that has begun for peace which I
think is going in the right direction.
"We are still in the pre-negotiation phase.
"We have said that we are not in favor of sending Italians on
military missions under the NATO flag or under the flag of the
European Union.
"The only option could be that of the United Nations, but there
must be a decision by the Security Council".
