Dr David Hine comments on Italian foreign policy

In the wake of the Italian foreign ministers resignation, David Hine was interviewed by the Italian newspaper Lettera43 on the state of Italian foreign policy.

The foreign minister resigned following a dispute between India and Italy surrounding a case of two Italian marines who are accused of killing two Indian fishermen. The minister resigned because he disagreed with the Italian governments decision to send the marines to India to stand trial.

David noted that it is difficult for Italy to project a strong foreign policy due to its economic challenges at home and its technocratic government.
