The Italian Government has taken due note of the recent developments in the trial taking place in Sofia regarding the tragic terrorist attack in Burgas against a group of Israeli tourists which, as reported by the Bulgarian government, seems to show evidence of responsibilities of elements relating to the military wing of Hezbollah.
We are considering this issue very seriously, and we are willing to study it thoroughly with our partners also to agree on possible responses.
Italy appreciates the willingness expressed by the Lebanese Premier Mikati to collaborate with the Bulgarian authorities to shed light on the dynamics of the attack in Burgas
