Italy advocates recognition of the State of Palestine, but considers this possible only after recognition by Israel, Italian Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Antonio Tajani said before the start of the meeting of the EU foreign ministers, reported from TASS.

"We support the emergence of a Palestinian state, but Palestine must be recognized by Israel. We recognize the Palestinian National Authority, with which we cooperate,” he said. "We want to recognize Palestine, but after recognition from Israel.”
