The Italian government supported the extension of the authorization for the supply of military aid to Ukraine. This decision requires the approval of the parliament.
As ANSA reports, the government approved a decree that provides for “urgent provisions regarding the extension of the permit for the transfer of military equipment, materials and equipment to the authorities of Ukraine.”
At the same time, the final decision on the continuation of military aid must be taken by the Italian parliament.
It is worth noting that the current authorization for the supply of weapons to Ukraine by Italy is valid until the end of 2024.
Italy has been supporting Ukraine since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion. The country’s authorities have already extended the authorization for the supply of military aid several times.
In particular, on December 16, it became known that the Italian government approved the 10th package of military aid for Ukraine.
Interestingly, the list of weapons that Italy will transfer to Ukraine as part of the new package remains confidential.
