Iranian threats against Italian leaders are unacceptable, Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani told Iran International on Monday.
“It is unacceptable. Italy is not fighting against Iran, so we do not understand this attack against Italy,” Tajani said on the sidelines of an EU Foreign Affairs Council meeting in Brussels.
On Saturday, Tehran municipality-affiliated newspaper Hamshahri published an image of 13 world leaders, including Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, claiming they were on the Islamic Republic’s revenge list.
Tajani said Italy supported democracy, peace and freedom of navigation, describing any effort to block the Strait of Hormuz as a major mistake.
“Freedom of navigation is crucial for us,” he said. “On this, we support the American position, not the Iranian position.”
