The military escalation between Israel and Iran is reigniting tensions in Europe, bringing the threat of terrorism back to the forefront of discussion. Defense Minister Guido Crosetto is sending a clear message: Italy is not directly involved in the situation, but it cannot claim to be safe. Every Middle East problem, he continued, might have an indirect impact on our country, particularly given the West's role in supporting Israel. Crosetto cautioned that "Islamic fundamentalism can strike Tel Aviv's allies," but emphasized that the efficacy of Italian intelligence services and law enforcement has so far prevented critical scenarios. A posture that reopens the internal security discussion, as the government attempts to strike a balance between vigilance against terrorism and active participation in foreign diplomacy.
