Italy will not join the Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List initiative to supply Ukraine with U.S. weapons, the defence minister told parliament on Wednesday.
"We have said no from the beginning, and it is still a no," minister Guido Crosetto, a key figure within Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni's Brothers of Italy party, said during a question time session at the lower house of parliament.
Earlier this week, Crosetto met U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in Washington.
