The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Antonio Tajani, presenting at Farnesina the promotion and communication project “Sport and innovation Made in Italy”, underlined: “Especially at this moment when we have two wars close to us, in Ukraine and in the Middle East, in addition to the situation in the Red Sea, we must send messages of peace. And who better than an athlete to wear it?

It is no coincidence that relations between China and the United States have resumed thanks to a game of ping-pong. When you attend a sporting event, you carry positive values. »
