G7 Leaders’ statement on Gaza
We, the Leaders of the Group of Seven (G7), fully endorse and will stand behind the comprehensive deal outlined by President Biden that would lead to an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, the release of all hostages, a significant and sustained increase in humanitarian assistance for distribution throughout Gaza, and an enduring end to the crisis, with Israel’s security interests and Gazan civilian safety assured. We reaffirm our support for a credible pathway towards peace leading to a two State solution. We call on Hamas to accept this deal, that Israel is ready to move forward with, and we urge countries with influence over Hamas to help ensure that it does so.

Ceremony held at the Chamber of Deputies for the centenary of the death of Giacomo Matteotti: President Meloni’s statement
On 30 May 1924, Giacomo Matteotti delivered his last speech to the Chamber of Deputies, which went on to cost him his life. During that speech, Matteotti defended political freedom, expressed through parliamentary representation and free elections. We are here today to commemorate a free and courageous man, killed by Fascist squad members because of his ideas. 100 years on from that speech, honouring his memory is of vital importance to remind us, every day, how valuable freedom of speech and thought is against those who would go so far as to claim the right to determine what we can and cannot say and think. Today more than ever, Matteotti’s lesson serves to remind us that respect for others, dialogue and freedom are the cornerstones of our democracy, not violence, oppression, intolerance and hate towards political opponents.
