Italy's Deputy Minister Lapo Pistelli visits Eritrea
Italy's Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lapo Pistelli, visited Eritrea today and met with President Isaias Afwerki.
During their lengthy meeting, the two sides agreed to strengthen bilateral cooperation and coordination on regional matters.
"It's time to start over", said Pistelli at the conclusion of the meeting.
"I wanted to make it clear to President Isaias personally here in Asmara that Italy is ready to show a new willingness, that will certainly enable the mutual trust that has been lacking among us for many, many decades."
The Deputy Minister's visit to Eritrea marks the first time a senior Italian government official has visited the country in over a decade.
