In his latest article with Global Risk Insight published on 26 August, Nicolo Donà dalle Rose reviews Italy’s foreign policy in the Middle East. The author focuses on the appointment of Italy’s new Minister of Defense, Elisabetta Trenta, and its impact on Italian involvement in Libya. According to Dona dalle Rose, the new Minister of Defense has demonstrated a certain independance from her administration. He states that Trenta's views on the migration issue contrast with those of the Italian government. However, he argues that the minister is unlikely to redirect Italy’s position on that matter. As a result, Donà dalle Rose expects Italy's involvement in Libya to continue focusing on the control of the migration flow.
