Caracas – A chance to give “support and solidarity to the Italian community”. This is the main goal of the recent mission of Under-Secretary of Foreign Affairs Mario Giro in Venezuela. In an interview with Mauro Bafile, Director of La Voce, the Italian newspaper in Caracas, Giro talked about the mission and the political situation in the South American country. The under-secretary underscored the role that Italy could play in facilitating and encouraging a dialogue in which both government and opposition were aware that this was the only way to end the violence and manage what is also an economic crisis, whose negative effects are being felt across the country’s entire social fabric.
