The entry of Russian troops into Ukraine is unacceptable. This was stated by Prime Minister Matteo Renzi, in a telephone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin: the invasion of Ukraine, with Russian troops who have crossed the border in the Donestk region, is "an intolerable escalation" whose consequences “they would be very serious”.
The Italian prime minister, also in his capacity as rotating president of the EU, thus expressed all his concern for the events in Ukraine, urging "the return to the negotiating table".
