ROME - Italian Defence Ministry sources are hailing the arrival at last of the first parts of Italy’s long promised SAMP/T missile defence system in Eastern Europe on its way to Ukraine after several months of postponement. The antiaircraft system was reported to be travelling through Poland this Friday, but this only occurs months after Italy promised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky the defence weapon, said the sources.

 ROME - in an interview with Affaritaliani.it, Maurizio Gasparri, Senate leader of Forza Italia, called for a reconsideration on a potential plan to further elevate taxes on Italian banks. In yet another move against his coalition partners Giorgia Meloni and Matteo Salvini, Gasparri passionately and directly proposed Elon Musk and other untaxed tech 'banditi' as the correct source for government income.
