The Italian Prime Minister has called on Greta Thunberg's 'Freedom Flotilla' to immediately stop their mission as it nears the shores of Gaza.
Posting a statement to X on Tuesday, Giorgia Meloni said that insisting on a confrontation with Israel would upset the current 'fragile balance' that could lead to peace based on a plan proposed by Donald Trump aimed at ending the war.
'A hope of agreement has finally opened up to end the war and the suffering of the Palestinian civilian population and to stabilize the region. A fragile balance, which many would be happy to disrupt,' the Italian PM said.
'I fear that the flotilla's attempt to breach the Israeli naval blockade could provide a pretext for this.
'Also for this reason, I believe the Flotilla should stop now and accept one of the various proposals put forward for the delivery of the aid,' she added.
